Hey dude,

I was in the same boat as you, I had my system in my Civic before and that came with integrated rear metal speaker brackets, so I came up with the same idea for the Starlet but made from MDF. Speaker size is 5 1/4 though but I think 6 1/2 may fit without any facia's over covers on them.

Then the rear parcel shelf has 6x9's on with a raised MDF platform to level up to the lip so its flush.

Yeh its covering up those pockets in the rear, I used L brackets screwed in to the plastic then fixed the wood to that, the speaker facia's cover up the screw heads so it all looks tidy. I'll take one out and post a picture of the fittings when I get chance, will make more sense then.
