yeah there is a vw part. you remove the crap door drawer things and replace them with speaker grilles that have mount points for 5.25" (13cm) speakers.

you can get them from vw or try these guys:

The speaker grills should just fit in place of the door pocket, go for a 2 part componet set up if you can, woofer in the door, tweeter in the dash.

Don't bother with door speakers and expensive pods, instead put some decent 4" speakers in the top dash mounts. I've just put some Infinity ones in - admitedly not the cheapest!  (cost ?40 on Tottenham Crt Rd) and they sound excellent. :o
