From what I understand, to change out the back speakers is quite a chore, but is certainly possible. It does involve removing the quarter windows though. There are some detailed instructions on how to do this in a couple of places I've seen on the net; if I can find one, I'll edit the post and link it to you (good chance someone else will have the information readily available though).

As for the steering wheels... I've seen adapters sold in a few places, will see if I can relocate those. I too plan to upgrade my steering wheel eventually, but I have a strangely good condition factory steering wheel already (I was amazed it was in good shape!) and will hold off on that until after other higher priority improvements.

Lastly gauges... Here's one place you can get some new gauges: http://meistergaugefaces.com/html/gaugefaces/924.html

You can definitely replace the rear speakers without removing the quarter window, but you have to be extremely careful with the fabric-fiberboard panel or you can rip, tear, bend or otherwise damage it. In order to get to the speaker holes, you have to remove the plastic sill plate, the rear door seal (starts at the bottom under the sill plate and goes up to the top rear corner of the door opening), all of the seatbelt hardware, the coat hook, fold the rear seat down and remove the bracket, about 3 or 4 Philips head screws, plus the large plastic plug-screw up at the top. Using a spring hook or small, thin blade screwdriver, you can carefully pry the fabric from underneath the black rubber window seal. But it's probably easier and safer to just remove the window. They're really not that hard to remove and reinstall.

For the other stuff:
