Anywhere you decide to mount them your going to have to cut holes for them, unless you decide to make custom pods to mount them on the dash.

I put my tweeters in the A-pillars on the door. Just buy a 1 3/4in hole saw and measure everything twice before you cut. It looks so much better flush mounted.

if you dont wanna cut buy some tweeters that have a pod that will hold them at an angle and place them on the dash for best sound stage

I made separate "pods" for mine. Wanting the most accurate "on-axis" response.

Ditto, exactly where I put mine. Definately brings up the sound stage better than down by the original door mount.

You can always invest in the factory A-pillars.



Here's how the factory tweets are mounted along with the part number tag for the pillar. You can get them with or without the factory tweeter. Last ones I did the tweeter fit perfectly into hole and I simply held it in with a piece of back strapping screwed down by the mounting screws.



Infinity Reference Series component tweeter in the factory location.
