I grabbed a couple of sets of Pioneer TS-A1072R speakers.  They fit well
and work great.  I think I got them on sale on Amazon.  That is what I
would recommend.  Also why not upgrade your radio as well?  I bought a Sony
MEXBT2900 head unit.  It has bluetooth for audio streaming and calling.  I
haven't had a chance to install it but I will be doing that this spring.  I
got it for a great deal as a refurbished unit.

Finally, the coolest thing I have done lately is install a back up camera
in my Vanagon.  The back up camera works OK as the screen is kind of dim
for daylight use.  Works better at night.  However it also has bluetooth
hands free calling built into the mirror that works really well.  When a
call comes in you can see the number in the mirror/screen and the hands
free part works really well, I can hear people and they can hear me.  It is
made by Yada.

Hope you have a great Friday!
