rear doors ?? the rear oem speakers are in the rear 1/4 panel (the bit the parcel shelf sits on whats held in place by 7-8 torx screws and a few plastic clips then speakers twist out of there mount
i wouldnt bother with speakers in the parcel shelf esp if you have got subs in the boot as the sound pressure from the sub(s) will cancel out the sound from the speakers in the shelf and more than likely kill them in the long run
the simplyest setup and nicest sounding would be.....
comps in the front amped, rear speakers in the rear 1/4 (as above) run of the head unit for some rear fill if you need it. and a sub or 2 in the boot
Sound deading your doors and boot is worth every penny imho this will also make you new system sound a damn sight better too.

i also own a 5 door. speekers in the rear doors are pointless imo.
just fit a set in the rear 1/4 panel like i said above and run them off the H.U. if you want some rear fill
ideally you want to keep the sound stage up front (you dont drive the car from the back seat do you now) by adding speakers in the rear your draging the sound backwards as such you will lower the sound quailty of your system

speakers in the rear 1/4 are fine for the passengers in the back plus the corsa is only a small car. anyhooo you wont have passengers in the rear all the time.
just trying to save you some hassle and money what you could spend on better things been there done that and had 6x9s.Over the years i have spent Ł1000's on ice and various setups and learnt what work and what dont

The rear plastic trim in the boot on each side that the parcel shelf sits on yes
If you look at the top it has vents/grills in it the speaker sit beneath those vents/grills you neeed to remove the whole trim what is 6-7 torx screws and 2-3 plastic clips each side to get to the speaker mount
if you lucky you may fin the oem speaker wire tuck up there aswell
as for speakers either 5 1/4 (13cm) or 4" (10cm) will fit aslong as thay have the 4 mounting prongs there a straight swap
the stock rear speaker from my cdx.
