right was thinkin about it and think i know how and what to do (Isnt that a nice change)

gunna get vibe sek50's so they fit str8 into old hole and then mount the little tweeter (or r they called somethin else) into the side where the parcel shelf rests on (much like where escorts have them) only thing is where to put crossover box? its only small bout 4" and is round, should i fit it under tweeter or somewhere else? dont think there would be room behind cards for them, any ideas??

i always thought tweeters were directional so ideally you want them positioned somewhere where they are gonna be firing towards your ears. Never thought of having some in the back!

Hide the tweeters in the boot or under the seats unless you really want them on show!

its advised with component speakers that you have the tweeters higher then the other bass speaker and within 10" of them.

i have a set of tweeters in the same place and also a set just above the seat belt hight adjust trim thing between the front and pack windows.

both sets of crossovers are behind the rear door cards fair bit of room there.

I just cable tied mine to the rear speaker wires behind the card.

but ther is more room toward the bottom behind where the pocket is if your crossovers are a bit bigger than mine.

The Vibe SEK 50's fot well in the back, wdithe and depth, there is loads of room for your crosovers back there too,(behind the door card, so you can put it anyhre in there and use cable or tie raps or even blue tack if its resting at the bottom...lol, it will all be more obvious once you take the card off tho, there is lots of space back there..
