I know there are other threads on here on this same topic, but I thought I would add some photos to help us more visual oriented people along if you are wondering what is behind all that plastic and have not pulled the VX open yet. I added 4 INFINITY Reference 6020cs 6½" Component to the front and rear stock locations, it sounds so so much better, those tweeters are amazing!
Front Tweeters installed, I had to cut some holes in the plastic, but I think it turned out great:
Front woofers fit perfectly in the stock location no cutting needed:
Tweeter pod hanging there, woofer installed:
Back of tweeter install:
Tweeter installed in the rear passenger side and woofer installed:
Close up of woofers in rear:

The only real necessary parts to remove in the rear to make things easier is the rear handle bars, hand holds. You slide the rubber covers off and there are 2 screws, then the panels covering the speakers just have a lot of pop tabs that pop out of place to release the panels that cover the rear speakers. Parts I remove:
Behind Passenger side speaker panel, notice location of all the pop tabs:
Behind Passenger side speaker panel, notice location of all the pop tabs:
Behind Passenger side speaker panel towards the top, notice location of all the pop tabs and notice where the rear passenger handles were removed, this is the only real necessary thing to remove outside of all the pop tabs on the panel covering the speakers, and notice the tape looking thing on the body panel, this is the area I used to have room for the tweeter on the back side:
Behind Drivers side speaker panel, notice location of all the pop tabs:
Behind Passengers side speaker panel, notice location of all the pop tabs:
This is the Fastener on the connection between the rear panels on the drivers side and the far rear panel that houses the factory jack. Notice if you wanted to remove the far rear panel you would have to remove this screw, but this screw does not need to be removed to replace the speakers as the panel that covers the speaker area simply pops in place in this area:
