Default help with tweeters.

i got my GSR gutted from a junkyard, and i ended up putting in LS door panels. however i know the GSR panels have tweeters and my car has the wiring for em. how hard would it be to cut holes in my panels and instal tweeters? would it look pretty clean if i did? also any suggestions for what tweeters i should use? right now i got the second-best xplods all around (1632s i think), a 10" MTX 4000 in the rear all pushed by an xplod 760W amp.

All I did with my EJ civic is buy a hole cutting kit from a hardware store. Then find the hole saw that's a little smaller then my tweeters. I found the flatest spot on my doors and the general area where I wanted to place them. I cut the hole then I used a small plastic file to make it fit nice and snug. It looks almost factory except that the door is a tiny bit curved where I placed them.

Use a heat gun to reshape the door panel. Did it to my ek hatch every one thinks it stock.

if you're gonna cut holes for stuff...don't put sony xplod in there. they are no good. I understand puting them into factory locations cause you can remove them and get better, if you cut a hole for tweeters you may not find another set later to fit in the same holes.
