As far as I know the rears are indeed 4" but there's not much space so you may need quite a slim speaker.
Fronts are 6" but mlumb put some DLS ones in the front of his car and they don't do the 6" AFAIK so I assume he put in 6.5". Again there's not much space.
There's a lot of threads in the archives if you do a search. I'm looking at upgrading to the DLS 6.5" in the front but I'll take the door off next week and check the space.
* Disclaimer: I stand to be corrected on this.

Any recommendations for 4" rear speakers?
The Pioneers are Sh1te so maybe an Alpine?
Kicker do a 60W rms 4" speaker that sounds great.
As for the front you can fit 6.5" with large mid bass driving magnets if you want as there is plenty of space.
I have Cerwin Vega in mine and they fitted straight in.
Toatlly pointless using the rear speakers - there is so little depth that the acoustics are terrible. Spend money on a decent amp e.g. alpine - try and get a four channel amp and bridge the channels to drive only the fronts. It will sound amazing as mine does. I got some Focal Poly Kevlar speakers from ebay for £140 - they're usually £250, paired them with an Alpine 5 channel amp, four channels bridged to drive teh fronts, 1 channel driving a 10" JL sub in the cubby hole (tricky jobto make the box though)
Head unit is about £220 (pioneer mp3 version - MP77 or sumik)
If you want a good sound, bin whatever TVR supplied and re-do yourself - if you fit yourself, look at spending between £500 and £700 to get a good setup.

10" will fit. But tight fit.

The whole unit can be removed very easily, so when I come to sell the car, and the new owner thinks the sub is too big, I can replace the the helmet holder back.
The navy blue leather/leatherette, is the same as the tops of my doors and dash. Blends in nicely.

I know I'm going to get flamed for this, but how did the 'Max Power' gold Cerbera overcome the rear speaker problem?
by utterly destroying what was originally a nice car?
I agree....the Carisma Cerbera as it is known, IMO is way OTT, but thats my view......
yup, I realise it's over the top but I thought that they may have found an ingenious solution to the lack of space behind the rear speakers. There's a kit on ebay which allows you to mount speakers on a raised platform to give more space behind them and thought it may be possible in the Cerb, hopefully without ruining its asthetics.

edited to say: found the pictures and they seem to have a) wrecked it and b) comprised the back seats due to excessive no of speakers. Maybe not the best option then

Kojak,
I built a completely sealed box for my JL - it sounds fantatsic - cutting the front panel was pretty tricky though. How's yours made?
Hi Jimbob2.
Mines made exactly the same. MDF all round. Managed to get the cubic volume needed for the sub. (0.65 cu ft if I remember). The front panel was tricky, but made a template first.
