+1... That'll remove all the contaminants on the paint.
In regards to the speakers, I've fitted them in my popular and still manage to keep the OEM grills. Had to remove the old speakers from the metal frames, then cut a little bit out to allow for the speaker circuit board (male terminals) and create four holes where I used self tapers..
I also fitted rear speaker pods and ran wiring to the front. Contemplated using components at the front and tweets above the dash but haven't got round to it yet.
