New guy, building SQ. Help with where to install?

[shdggsdv]

Car is a 1975 Corvette with a very compact interior.

I have a set of Hertz HSK 165 2-way Component speakers I want to install in my car. Only issue is I don't know where to install.

I can put the tweeter in the dash to bounce sound off the windshield and that's great, but the only place I can install the woofer is behind the seats. I'll link a picture to where it would mount

Here is a picture of the cargo area. I'd mount in the upper corners around where that sub is placed in the picture

Here's an example that has speakers in place where I'd install behind the seats. Only difference is my car has no bubble window like in the first picture I linked

Will this be a good sounding setup? I can sell the speaker set and get a smaller set that will fit in the front kick panels by where your feet go if that'll really make a sound quality difference, but I'm hoping that a set up like this will be good because I love the sound of these Hertz

Behind you won't work. What about the kick panels?

The first thing I would do is sound deaden and lay MLV all over the car.

custom door pods nor custom kick panels is the proper way to do an SQ install from what i see in a 1975 camaro interior.

Kick panels don't allow for speakers with magnets larger than 4" wide. And there's absolutely no way I could manage to get any speakers in the doors. As for the dash; the biggest that fits are tiny 4x6 speakers or a tweeter.

Sound deadening is also done and good
