Remember that under the dash is the standard location, I just used larger speakers which required the use of spacers.
I don't know if rear facing speakers on there own would be very effective, I have four and with fader the set 50 / 50 the front speakers are definitely the ones that give most of the sound.

Alternatively you could get the housings that fit them at the rear of the tub, I personally didn't go for this solution as I thought I might damage them when carrying rubbish in the back.

I understand what your saying, im thinking about maybe putting 2 speakers in the headlining right above the seats. The thing with speakers being so low down is that when i get in after work with my steel toe cap boots ill destroy them in a short amount of time.
 
How about the door card?

Being 17 i dont really have the money to spend £80 on just 1 door card, hence why im thinking of putting it in the headlining as ive already got it in my 90 and it seems a logical place to put it. The only problem i can think of is space between the headlining and the roof, is there enough space for speakers?
 
You can get small speakers that fit into the dash beside the stereo unit - that way they are pointing at you and have a chance of being heard. I've also fitted a second set of larger speakers bolted to brackets that are themselves bolted to the internal gutter just behind the headlining. These are a set of domestic 50w surround speakers that were going spare. I've set them up pointed at the headrest of the seat on the other side. That way I can hear the music even at 60mph.

If I'm going 60mph, I want to hear my engine!

That’s an idea mounting them on the gutter rail. I’m just trying to figure out if I can get speakers in the headlining or not.
