well if i mount them in the a pillar they would be facing the windshiled only way i could do it

make sure you guys tell him just how much is involved in running active...all the time it takes to tune, deaden properly, proper HU, etc.

going active isn't THAT hard but you still have to know certain things. and you'll need either a hu capable of doing it or an external processor to control it. its easier all from the HU.

in a pick-up i think just a nice powerful front stage will be plenty.... even for the peeps in the back seat.

yea i'm not into fiberglass either. i did a little ghetto work with hot glue to get my left tweeter on-axis. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

thanks for the help guys

does anyone know how to get door panels off a f150 97-03 years

Here is the set i run in my Saleen nothing fancy....8" German made /MB Quarts..with image dynamics mini horns through an active trunkmount eq crossover....

can i have your money

 

[NoobieAudio 10+ year member]

well i carry alot of people with me and in the back they will have 2 12's l7's right inbetween of them so i figued i need some rear fill and i personally like rear fill
because this is how my setup will be its a f150 king ranch with bucket seats so i am taking out the rear console and getting a custom made ported box to fit inplace of the console inbetween the rear seats so it might be necessary for some rear fill

i will prob by 2 sets of comps and not hook up the tweeters for the rear unless its necessary

so would the A pillar be a good spot to mount tweeters

i love that truck.
