    Nice, but the body of that speaker is 3.25" in diameter, it isn't fitting into a stock tweeter pod. Gotta be under 2".

    Door mount?

      Sound check with "Great gig in the sky" off Dark side of the moon. They sound good with those Jamos. They are strong down low so I had to knock down the midrange a bit, but they sound pretty good for $24 and an hours worth of whittling and sanding. I have them crossed over 6db at 2.8k. Probably need to drive around and break them in a bit before passing final judgement.

      I would have them bi-amped with a kickin sub box by now, except the molex connectors for the Amps were the wrong gender so the amps didn't get installed. I'm running them off the headunit with some PE caps. Don't know how I missed that.

      Mounting not ok. Seems there are about 170 ways to orient the tweeter in the pod where the speaker leads do not touch anything in the door. Leave it to me to find out the one angle that does not fit. The right side fits, the left side needs to be rotated about 10 degrees.
