Where do you mount the x-over's?
If I get djsexy's kickpanels, where should I mount the crossovers? do they have to be as close to the speaker as possible? Can I put it behind the kickpanel?

I doubt you'll have room behind the kick panels. In my firebird I installed them above the passenger foot area. The first time, I double-back taped the x-over to the computer. Bad idea. SES light came on and the car ran like hell. After that I moved it to a different area up there. In my IROC I didn't want that mess up there, so I mounted them in the back near my amps and ran separate wires for the mids and tweets. Works like a champ.

I don't reccomend keeping it real close to other wires. There's a chance that you can get interference problems from the field created by the inductors. Like I said, when I had it piggy-backed to my computer, I had all sorts of problems.
