Thanks for posting these. I also was looking for some ideas along these lines. The high resolution images posted on Corvair Center made them difficult to view. I re-posted them below in a downsized format for easier viewing...

Fitted new Pioneer 4x6 speakers to the fresh air vents that I had previously sealed.

Originally purchased a pair of very nice Kicker 6x9 3-way speakers but they were too large and would not fit.

Although the Pioneer speakers are smaller they still have very good sound.

I cut some rigid plastic sheet (the lid from a storage container) and cut out the oval shape of the speaker to create a sound enclosure by gluing the plastic to the vent body then added two rivnuts to allow the easy removal of the speakers.

As you can see, I have yet to clean and finish the kick panels....uncertain whether they will get painted or covered with carpet or vinyl...

I removed the kick panels and used rigid plastic and glued it to the back side to seal them:
