Lee,
I am about to do the same myself, as I dont have that rear AC housing. As I hate to
cut the panels in my car to mount speakers, I got some replacement panels from the
junkyard. I got a good look behind the panel on that particular van, and the only
problem I could seem to remember is the depth of the speaker. Just remember to
control that before you cut the hole, other than that, you (and I) should do nicely
with speakers in the rear panels.
