I'd say those panels are out of an 83 or earlier car, 84 plus it changed. I have an 83, and finding good speakers was very difficult due to the limited depth behind the panel. The factory speaker does not fit the cut out on the back panel, but no reason not to find a speaker that does fit.

Blaupunkt makes a "thin" thx series of speakers, not very good, but something like 1.5" depth. Lanzar also makes some thin. Small Chevy trucks like the S10 used to require them on the dash I think.

Typically the rubber foam surround on the speak cone is what goes bad, and many speaker repair places will put in new rubber fairly cheaply.
