[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8824480, member: 614752"] Not saying it can't be done or will necessarily sound bad and have heard reliable sources say they've had it sound good. I just never sat in one myself that I thought sounded natural. Bear in mind you're dealing with reflecting and almost sort of horn loading mounted up on a dash like that so literally anything can happen with all those sound waves trying to propagate from the coil to your ears. I absolutely believe it can be done and made to sound good, but it's far more of a dice roll than mounting in kicks or A pillars or other more common locations. If you're trying to get it to work, don't be surprised if it takes a lot of fiddling to make it sound good or depending on the shape of your dash+glass you may just never get good results in your particular vehicle. Now if a reliable brand like CDT sells it for your exact body style vehicle it'll probably sound good as they have picked driver and crossover points and such to work well in that exact application.
