Do the front doors and rear doors with the coaxial speakers you picked out.
If you want to replace the speakers on top of the dash then you buy tweeters and wire them up the the factory speaker wires just like the other four speakers.
A set of components like these will work much better but will be trickier to install because they have to be wired correctly and they don't make 4" components (to my knowledge) so yours would be custom mounted.
Something like this is a good choice, http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_18835_Rockford-Fosgate-P152-S.html

By the way, when I looked up your car it told me that the front speakers are 4" and the rears are 6.5" so why did you pick out 5.25" and 4x6" speakers??

I use Metra almost every day at work and they're very accurate. Of course everything might change once you get the door panel off.

What is everyone's opinion on Infinity speakers.
The guy who is going to be installing my speakers is an Infinity dealer, any good?

generally a shop won't give you a competitive deal if you use online as a reference. they'll be like..i pay rent on this building and blah blah utilities thats why mines more expensive.

its fairly legitimate but its not your fault they work in a dying medium.

order online and avoid the run around.
