[QUOTE="Umbra, post: 8260308, member: 658055"] Unlike the front that had component 6.5s originally, there's no immediate way to mount tweeters in the back. In the front there's a spot in the door for them and the area is molded in such a way so the tweeter would better face the driver and passenger. The KFC-P709PS tweeter can be angled natively after mounting, so I could probably get away with putting them in the same relative spot like you suggested by cutting a hole into the plastic. I could then tilt them, but where? Towards where ear level would be for a person sitting in the back? Is the general consensus 6.5s are better than 6x9s and 6.5 components are better than coaxials in terms of SQ if the specs and prices are similar? To what degree would the pressure created by the subs affect the SQ and longevity of speakers mounted in the rear deck? Does it matter if the woofer is behind the person and the tweeter is in front? Thanks for answering my questions so far. Sorry there are so many new ones, it just seems like you'd be the one to ask. [/QUOTE]
