89 Coupe speaker upgrade

We currently have 1989 911 coupe at my facility and looking to upgrade the speakers and still utilize the exsisting grilles. Anyone have experience or recommendations?

Alpine makes a 4 by 6 speaker that fits perfectly. I have done this upgrade awhile back

With the afterhours pipes on my 996 C4 I now keep the tunes at lower volume to hear the wonderful symphony coming from the back of my car.
