Default Question about Convertible speakers?

I have a 91 yellow vert that is mint-- 9k -- and my Bose is getting ripped out by me over next few weeks. I bought a JVC Cameleon- and I plan to replace all speakers, but the rears have 6 inch round speakers and I am looking to put in 6x9-- The fronts have two speakers one looks like a 4 inch and the other a small tweeter-- What can I put in the front? I assume I have to cut plastic away to make maybe a 5 1/4 fit for the fronts? Also will I have a problem with power antenna not working, they say Bose has a special unit for power antenna attached to Head Unit?

6x9 for the rear. You will probably need to fill the locations with a sheet of 1/2" MDF and cut holes in it. Front 5 1/4 unless you want to build boxes. Antenna is easy. Instead of unpluging the antenna wire from the receiver which is burried in the dash, plug an extension to the antenna coax wire under the carpet in the rear of the cargo area driver's side. This is where the coax comes throught the body and you can plug into it there. The power antenna wire is at the stock HU location.
