put them in the upper part of the door panel, in front of the door handle... and paint the grilles to match the vinyl... then they blend in... my friend did that in his 98 accord... looks really nice, and they are hard to see when looking in the car.

Or you can cover the mesh grilles and trim ring with beige-brown grille cloth...
actually, the tweeters in a component system are supposed to be as close to the mid as possible. I personally don't think that's too low to put the tweets, hell, if I had some Q-forms they'd be even lower, and not only that, but being that my leg doesn't cover up the top part of the speaker grill/door panel where I'd be putting them, I think the sq/imaging will be better. I don't have a stock grill to put them behind, I have an LX. Im gonna put in my Kenwood DualMags and see how they sound with a competent amp running them and the eq/line driver to tweak the frequencies a bit. I might not have to add separate tweeters cause when I had the DualMags in my Civic running off a cheap-o-special Koiiler amp, it sounded sweet. I can only imagine it's gonna sound even better w/a Soundstream Reference 414S and Clarion EQS560 in the loop:naughty:
