Could drill a hold near the top of the door card and flush mount them in. I've also seen them on the dash or if you can't be bothered do a tweeter build on the mirror plates.

Heres my JBL 507C's! They come with little pods which allow you to rotate the tweeter, which is awesome tbh!
All you need to do is drill a 50mm(ish) hole and sandwhich the door card between the pod!

well defo be buying these as you said. hope these will be louder then anybosies 6x9's and be dangerously loud! and i may buy that amp as well.. so basically its the wire from the amp joining onto the same point as where the speaker + and - joins to right.
also what about the tweeters /to they go into the same channel for each speaker?
cross overs are soo confusing! hoep teres no settings on them.
so its amp > crossover > door> speakers + tweeters .
also if i buy this amp and speakers will need you to tell me what settings to put the amp at. should be easy actaully. turn it up louduntil i think it distorts lol

Wait till you get the comps and the wiring will all be revealed!
Input to crossover from amp
Output, from C.O to tweeter
Output, from C.O to woofer.
Simple!
Setting them up is done like this....
H.U to 75% volume, turn the gain up slowly until they begin to distort at high volume. When they distort turn the gain back a tiny bit and you're about there mate. But when using them, do not let them play if they are distorting! Turn them down!!

The small remote wire will be fine mate! It doesnt carry any real current tbh.
Ring this number and say, make me a box!
01902 45 80 10
They are very good, and wont charge you the earth, but will deisgn the box around your sub!
Not expensive either! About £50-60 for a bigun like you will need.
