Firstly, if you've got a Beta head unit, you're not getting any rear speakers unless you change your head unit.
Secondly, if your car hasn't got any grilles in the back, then you won't be able to fit any rear speakers in the sides of the car unless you get your jigsaw out and cut holes for them.
Thirdly, putting speakers on the parcel shelf (6x9's or other) takes the soundstage far too much to the rear as Robo-Toda and I have already said.
I've never had any problems with back seat passengers complaining when they're in the car (apart from asking me to turn it down a little maybe!!!) and that's with my front components amped and an amped sub in the boot.
I've done it all before and this is what's worked best for me.
I'm sure VW's had speakers in the back...

The only reason I had some speakers fitted to the rear of my car was for shows. they really cock up the soundstage as all the sound is at the rear of the car which is great when at a show and you've got your system on show but not so great for day to day driving. in the end i disconnected them and just used them at shows.
