By the mids in the floorboard I hope you mean in the kick panels, in which case I would mount them as close as possible to the mids.

Serioiusly? You do know what a "front stage" is, correct? I'd put them down in the kicks. It looks like you may have a couple of different places in the door to put them as well. How is that "out of your league"?

Mid 90s buick? Ive mounted some in the door panel before, behind the light controls where the fake grills are, take some dremel work but ends up looking really nice when done.

When I had my comps in my 93, I had the 6.5s in the doors in the stock opening, and the tweeters in the little square right above them, its a stock tweeter opening I believe.

Later decided to put the tweeters higher on the doors, surface mounted, and I liked that alot better.

But personally, id do the tweeters next to your mids in your kicks, or possible on the a pillar if you have the space.

**** you really do roll in some the junkiest cars on the planet. with all these cars you have owned or talk about, we could have filled up the trailer park before they shot the movie '8 mile'

yes, and no... louder yes but i want decent imaging as well and have always heard to keep them close to mids.

well i took off panels and there was almost no flat surfaces and just too many wires... i decided that would be a bit too much for me to try to deal with.
