Dash speakers and hidden antennas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm in the middle of restoring a truck and have the cab stripped down, no glass installed, etc. I was looking at the top of the dash the areas outboard of the defrost vents. Would small speakers work well there, reflecting off the windshield? Kind of like rear speakers on the back deck of a car. I was thinking about 4x10's or maybe squeezing a 5-1/4" or smaller in there. I have an old set of MTX speakers in boxes that I was going to put new speakers into and set behind the seats to go with it.

I was also wondering if anyone has had any success at all with any brand of hidden antenna.
