Rian, before you go all crazy with mounting speakers, you may want to look at investing in some foam backing baffles for them.
The reasons being they will improve sound quality, extend the life of the speakers, and in the case of the door mounted ones, they will protect them from the rain water and dirt that slip in through the window gaps.

They run about $10 USD for a pair, and IMO are by far worth the investment.

Good use for the holes in the doors though !!
Are you going to paint the rusty panel to match your door skins? (as in black?)
