If anyone has any ideas to add on or has worked with any of this equipment before then I welcome all advice. The tweeter will be mounted in the door pulls and the a pillars. The amp rack will be custom built and a local embroidery shop is going to do some custom work in the trunk so it should look pretty good when they get done. I will add pics as I go along. I will be starting as soon as all of the stuff arrives.. Thanks again

tweeters in door pulls cause some serious side bias issues. Stick with the pillars.

I would shy away from 4 tweets as well and if you do go with the pillar location as close to cross firing as you can get without any interference from the dash. Rest looks pretty solid.

G'luck
