Actually, from what I read up on it, the majority view is if you are dashboard mounting a midrange, get it close to the windshield as possible.sMASH wrote:^^ do u think it was too close to the windscreen to give that terrible sound?
if u move it away from the wind screen, would it sound different?

The switch is installed.
The doors strangely only have a 6" hole for the 6x9 speaker. I traced out the ring to hold the 8". Will cut it out and see how the fitment goes, and how much metal needs to be cut.
The dash locations will require a bit of modification for the speaker to fit. I want to connect the speakers to test before doing any dash modifications. This way I will decide if it would be worth the effort to modify.
Hopefully I don't have to cut any metal to get the depth required.
Thanks....do you have a picture of the tweeter you removed by chance?Firewall wrote:It was a 1” tweeter.

Is that's the tweeter that comes in the dash from the factory?
