Does anyone know if there is enough room behind the A-pillar to mount a tweeter?
A pillar tweeters?

You can take the easy way out and just glue the tab to the windshield……getting it attached to the factory chrome drop post takes a little work

You can get a replacement tab from O'rileys for about 3 bucks......

It’s a car.. only so much you can do… but the answer is no…. actually the back of the mirror is “v” shaped. The same could be said about door panels or anything else for that matter…. The left one is 2 feet away the right is 4 or 5 feet away, completely throwing off the sound dynamic….
Doesn’t mean I’m going to take out the 4 speed and center console and mount one bucket in the middle

I see your point though.. “if” they were firing forward it would probably suck from the middle….. These are reflecting off the windshield and it’s essentially dispersing the sound.
I also have a sound processor that changes the timing of each speaker so the sound stages where you want it.
Didn't know I could get the tab locally I'm looking at the mirror idea

Awesome, I don't think you'll regret it If you do hate it for whatever reason.... your only out 15 bucks or so..... I installed at AutoSound & More, here in Omaha for about 5 years. I've done about 1/2 a dozen this way and never had one come back.....

Right now I'm trying to finish up my alarm install and painless wiring so I can get the dash fully installed.Awesome, I don't think you'll regret it

Looks pretty wicked too if you do it right and are into the 'show' thing... I personal prefer stealthy stuff... mostly because it lessens the chance of your stuff getting jacked...
It'll definitely put some highs right in your face :beers:
I'll ck out the " junk in trunk" .... still kind of love this stuff.

Yeah I like the stealth look cause of theft thats why I'm putting in an alarm system with 2 way paging and tilt sensor. I hate thief's and heaven help the next one I catch.Looks pretty wicked too if you do it right and are into the 'show' thing...

WOW, those are some crazy venting ports in the rear, LOVE it... Why the huge trim plate on the head unit.... did you cut too wide
Is that Dakota digital I see there too? NICE!
I went easy in this one.. pre fabricated kicks (hate the vents), etc...

I paid a place to cut the dash and make the trim ring it came out larger than I would have liked but I'll live with it. There are no venting ports it's a sealed box.
I'm just not a huge fan of Audibahn but I wanted this build to include companies I had never used before

You have done some nice work, wasn't dogging you at all... it's impressive

Thanks a lot of what I'm doing is first time ever (that box was my first box build ever with first time ever doing fiberglass). I am really trying to get this car on the road but it's not going very quick (damn school takes up too much time)I'm not real partial to them either I got them for free for updating a website
