Adding tweeters to door

My suburban had a factory Bose system that sounds very good. I liked the added teeters on the windshield pillar and thought it would make a great addition to my firebird. This is what I came up with using my spare door bezel.

Good job. Getting components for the sails. Want to do something similar there.

Very nice work. I actually had the same idea a few years ago. I relocated the power door lock switch and planned to put a tweeter in its place, but I never got that far. Car needed other work first. Here's the final product, sans tweeter obviously.

That's pretty handy too. Can't wait until I have plenty of money to do my audio install.
