In the bin.  Even though you got them for free 6x9s are not the best way to get better sound in the car.  What car is it for?

Are they not 5 1/2" in the mk4? Get a decent set-up at the front and sell the 6x9s on the bay of e.

To be honest not sure of the sizes of my speakers can you recommend a good set but not being a Scrooge but don't wanna spend a fortune on them just a set with a good sound

With a budget small enough to not bother buying speakers with.. id recommend finding a 2nd hand amp and amping up your std speakers. I know bora std speakers amp up well so presume golfs are the same
