The speaker size 5x7 and 6x8 refers to the original speaker mountings in a automotive environment. Some car manufacturers use 5x7 speakers with corresponding mounting holes and 6x8 speakers just correspond respectively
Having worked as a car audio installer, I find that 5x7 speakers will fit in a 6x8 speaker opening, and you would have to take out the 6x8 speaker holes that are usually found in a 5x7 speaker with the holes horizontally on each end of the oval shaped speaker. You could use a hex saw blade to do this and then break it off using a pair of pliers.
OK you know your cars speaker size, next is how much power you will use to drive it. If you are just replacing a stock speaker with an upmarket model, go for at least 100watts max (50rms) two way speaker.
If you plan to use the speakers with an external amplifier ( meaning another amp mounted in your boot / trunk area, then go for a higher rating speaker and always check the mounting depth so you have clearance for your window winder mechanisms.
5X7 and 6x8 speakers will fit in those holes respectively, but 6x9 speakers are larger in length.

Most Ford's use 6x8 speakers. In the aftermarket world you can use 5x7's if they have the extended mounting tabs. Be aware though that 5x7's are great mids and will not provide the same bass response that a true 6x8 will deliver.
