Custom mounted tweets in my A Pillars *PHOTOS*

I wanted to put these in for awhile but didn't know how I wanted to go about it. Finally I decided that I would mount them behind the pillar and wrap the entire a-pillar in grille cloth anyway. Here's how it went down:

First I used a holesaw, and mounted the tweet behind the pillar. I wanted a hole that was only as large as the tweet dome.

Then I used a glue gun to mount the tweet where I wanted it and bent a metal strap over the back to hold it down and glued it to the tweet as well.

Then I used spray adhesive to wrap the pillars


Finally I mounted them. What do you guys think?

No but I'd really like to dye all of the interior black. It matches the grille cloth on the kicks and matches the dash.

Nice, looks good!
Wrap all the other pillars to get the look evened out!
Where did you get your grill cloth at?

Peace

Do the new mirror tweeters plate fit in the 01 to 03, and do you think my TR's will fit in the hole from the factory.
