Where to put 6x9s?

Hey folks,

I've got a pair of 6x9s that I've taken out of my old car and I can't seem to decide whether to keep them for my 86 or just sell them. The way I see it, I have 2 options:

1. Sell them and replace the stock rear speakers with something better. The issue here is that I'm scared the sound might take a serious quality hit.

2. Find a place to put them in the rear. Maybe convert the stock housing if it's deep enough for 6x9s or build custom housings and put them somewhere. The downside here is obviously the housing. I'm kind of scared to cut a massive oval hole in my interior. Has anyone fitted 6x9s to their car? How did you do it?

I guess an overall picture of my setup would help. I'll put 6-inch speakers in the doors, tweeters in the dash and a 10-inch sub in the boot all running off 2 amps.

Suggestions please!
