What to use to cut door panel?
I want to put tweeters on my door panels since theres no where else to put it since I have an LX model. What should I use to cut the panel to install the tweeters?

Or use a circle cutter drill bit, (looks like a steel band with saw blade teeth on one end and a drill bit in the center. Get one that has the same Outside Diameter as the Inside Diameter of the tweeter mounts.

Check out my post back in June about mounting tweeters in the doors here. Measure the diameter of the hole you'll need to cut and get a hole saw that size. If they're flush mount tweeters, they'll hide the hole and look professional. Here's a pic of the Pioneer TS-T110's I used:

I installed my tweeters in the doors of my sedan right next to the door handle. My components came with stickers to use as guides for cutting the circles out. I just stuck the sticker on and took and exacto knife and scored the outline of the sticker. Then, I took a dremel and slowly opened up the hole. Pretty easy. You could try and find a circle type cutter for a drill. I had one but it was slightly to big and didn't want to spend anymore money.
