Starting a system install on my DD Evo 8. This car is my mobile office, I do 100-200 miles a day. It is modified and sounds good on the outside, now I want to sound a little better on the inside. I am not an audiophile and my hearing isn't the best so I picked my components based on price and cohesiveness. I am sound deadening the doors in an effort to quiet the inside a little. This will be a simple install project for me and a proof of concept for some of the door deadening. I have always messed around with car audio in my other vehicles, this one I hope to do right, mostly. Feel free to offer constructive criticism and advice along the way.
Parts list:
JVC KD-AVX1 H/U
Alpine MRP-F300 amp
Alpine MRP-M350 sub amp
Polk DB 6501 components
Polk DB 651 coaxial
No sub picked out yet but I think I like this one from Kicker.
Stock tweeter. Pretty sure they were blown, I could not hear any sound from them

Cannibalizing the stock tweeter for the mounting bracket

Silicone holds the new tweeter on the mounting bracket. There is a groove on the back of the tweeter that fits the bracket like they were made for each other.

All mounted back in the stock location. Pillar cover goes back on and no ones the wiser.

The crossover gets mounted up in the kick panel. There are already some other wires in there for some other equipment in the car, the xover nestles right in.
