tweet mounting *pics*

Yeah the rain wont hurt them. I had mine get rained on hard and they were fine. I would flush mount them as well since you have the swivel mounting kit. Then just point your tweeter at where ever you think sounds the best. But be careful with the swivel. I had so much bass in this one car that as soon as it would hit it would make the tweeter move and couldnt get good imaging. Good luck!

if you want your soundstage (where the sound is coming from) to be below you, then by all means, mount the tweeters on your doors.
I had my tweeters mounted in my doors for about a year and I was never quite.. satisfied with it. it didn't sound right, ever... i felt the sound was under me.

Pointing the tweeters TOWARD you erases any type of depht you might get from your music. Try standing in front of 1 speaker and see how deep your music sounds. You'll notice no depht or soundstage.

Ideally, you want your tweeters sitting in your a-pillar, angled toward the sunroof (if you don't have one, where it would be). If you need any reason to believe this, go read CDT's info on soundtage.

It doesn't look like your tweeters fit flush.. but you can aim them with some creativity.

Most tweeters you want pointed directly at you, I don't know what you're thinking, but pointing them at you will make the soundstage sound all that much better...
