Default Speaker sizes

I've done some searching and haven't found anything helpful yet. 2000 c5 with the Bose system. At least one is blown so I'll be replacing it. Not sure what size the speakers in the doors and in the truck are. Any help would be appreciated.

This is what the door speakers look like and they are not cheap.
Rear 6.5"

Is there a combo of like 5.25 and tweeter that will work in the front door or is the factory about the only way to go?

Honestly, do yourself a favor and call him. Lots of options and different price points available. Your speakers are hidden under grills so it just makes sense to upgrade them
