Who here has component speakers? How did you mount your tweeter?
I decided that, for now anyway, I wanted to put the tweeter in the factory position (I have (well, had ;-)) the JBL premium system.) However, upon taking the door apart, I found out that it wasn't as simple as just pulling out the old tweeter and screwing the new one in.
After sacrificing an old toolbox for plastic, here's what I came up with.

(For those of you who didn't know, the factory tweeter is about 2 3/4 inch diameter, and comes installed in that big plastic box.)
I took out the stock tweeter (which is bolted in with very teeny torx screws) and screwed the piece of plastic over the hole. Then, I installed the new tweeter on the plastic. Pretty straight forward, but the actual work and figuring out how to do it took a little time. I haven't tested it to see how it will fit; hopefully it will go back in nicely.
The speakers I'm instlling are the Boston Acoustics ProSeries 6.5 two-ways, powered by a PPI PCX-2125.
