Awesome!

I would've moved them all the way forward and all the way to the sides though.

How much space do they take up below the dash pad?

Hmmmm....

They're gonna get cooked in the sun.

You need to find a way to put grill cloth over that tiny grill, otherwise they are only good for a short while.

Man, that's slick! I've never seen a tweeter install like that. If you have to drill in a dash pad may as well be for a good brand

sick install! I never thought of that, looks good. I'd just be worried about the sun, but then again, the 4x6"s are just as much in the sun, and mine are going on 3 years old! (Polk)
