How to install new speakers?

Hi, 2017 EX-L manual owner that just got some new speakers
Rockford Fosgate R165-S

I also got the prying tools that Crutchfield said might be required to help installation.

I just have NO IDEA where to start and haven't found anything for my vehicle. Any links to tutorials on how to do it? I also got the tweeters up front.

Not exactly a tutorial, but I replaced all four door speakers and documented with a few pix in this thread:

Oh this is so helpful! I managed to get the door off but I needed to order a mount and a wire harness. I got it back on... Easier than I thought it'd all be!

Did you also include changing the tweeters?

No. These were speakers that could have the tweeters installed separately from the woofers, or run coaxial. I chose coaxial, easier to install.
