Don't have pics, but I just installed my JL VR650 tweeters up on the sail panels (the plastic panels behind the side mirrors). I've got a 2004 EX Sedan. I just drilled a hole in there and screwed the tweeters in. Looks great! Plastic color matches up and everything.

Sounds good, too.

I don't have pictures yet but I mounted mine in the apillar. They are set back slightly and I have speaker cloth covering the whole pillar so you can't even tell they are their.

if i were to take mine out of the kick, id probably set em pretty far back on the dash

You can make/buy a set of kick panels and put components in there

I think that is one of the best things to do from an SQ perspective

I'm going to put my silk Diamonds in the kicks on axis and my Alum Diamonds in the a-Pillar off-axis crossed over and a few db's down. If anyone has a-pillar pics, POST EM!

the problem with mounting silk tweeters in a kickpanel is the tendancy to roll off very quickly. If they are your "main" tweeters, you may find you have no response above 15-16 KHz!

furthermore, aluminum tweeters in the dash may prove to be too bright, making yoru stereo sound like youve got little drummer boy down in teh door, and little cymbal boy up in the a-pillar!

but then again, perhaps experimentation with crossover points may allow the alums to act much the same as the ID image enhancement kit, aiding to raise the stage and complete FR where the silks quit.

i think it should be very interesting to see how this particular install performs

i want 4 tweets in my system (already have 2 mounted in the rear)...i think it'd be cool to cut a hole in the top of the door panel by the door handle and mount some there

CDT makes the image enhancement kit =P

Here is a picture of my tweeter location. Its actualy in the a-pillar. What look like tweeters in the door is just a grill to cover the hole left from when I removed them from that location. http://www.wrathof.com/pictures/dscf0098.jpg The speakers are coverd with fabric if you look about halfway to 2/3rds down the a-piller you should be able to see them if you look closely enough. Putting them in this location did two things. 1 it made cymbals and stuff have more attack. 2) it raised and seemed to widen the stage.

pretty good work with the grill cloth there

White, can you post a pic of your drivers side? I'm debating relocating the hood release so wrapping the panel isn't such a pain.

Like this?


Note: The small round piece on the fabric part below the door handle is the cover plate for my aftermarket power windows, and not another tweeter.
