I Dynamatted my doors so I can say with some kind of experience that the door cards aren't hard to remove. As for the sound deadening, it's a pain in the ass since the cutouts in the door are barely big enough to get normal man sized hands into to reach all the corners of the door. As for an aftermarket speaker set up for the doors...unless you plan on running an amplifier for the door speakers it's not really necessary. The stock mini amp is kinda garbage and will do more harm than good with a set of aftermarket speakers. I run pretty high end stuff in my cars but have yet to do any real audio upgrades to the FRS save an in dash Nav headunit.
Also after dynamatting the doors the stock speakers have a bit more bass to them than without and actually sound pretty decent. Now I am chasing new rattles in the doors, since I solved the rattling switches...
If you are set on new speakers go for some decent pioneers, they sound all right, and I think there are a few that they make that are similar depth as stock, otherwise you'll have to buy spacers and do a little cutting to the baffle on the back of the door card. I run JL C5 coaxials in my truck and will certainly be transplanting them as soon as I figure out how I want my sub installed in the FRS...as far as I'm concerned JL > All except Focal...but I cannot afford Focal...well their bottom line stuff yes but the stuff competitive with JL, no.
