Yes mate, as said, just solder the cable to the speakers. Its the best way anyway mate! Best contact, much better than any spade connector!
What speakers are they? DLS?
EDIT : Nice! Massive audio do some top notch SQ gear!

Not sure what you mean mate?
What else were you planning on adding? Mids?
In a saxo, imo, front comps and a sub is all that is needed tbh. And 3 subs is overkill tbh! You're never gonna get the right sized box for those, unless you are planning on taking out the rear seats?
