I replaced my front speakers a few months ago, with my fiance's help. We had gotten a set of MB Quartz speakers which were smaller than the NB speakers (but they were free!) so we had to a bit of retrofitting and modding to get them to fit snuggly. But the wiring seemed to be straight forward.
I would say any speakers are probably fine. I don't think there is anything fancy about the NB speakers.
Just one thing though, they are in there with pop rivets so you will need to get them out. We just used the holes from those to just use screws to keep the new speakers in. Also used some dynamat to help with vibrations.
