Aiming kicks.

Aiming kicks.
I am doing this for the first time, and initially I had them aimed at the
headrests with the tweeter on the bottom.
Sounds ok, but the RIGHT seems to be way to low and the music is drawn to the speaker itself.
The drivers side is nice. the speakers kinda disappear.
I messed around with angles, but with no luck.
Do the tweeter need to be behind the mids? in front? ( baffle angle)
Whats the trick? Maybe a little discussion how to set them up correctly?

I have had some success with seperating the mid and tweet onto seperate baffles.. Usually with the tweet under the mid.
As a quick discription.
Start with just the mid playing (no tweet)..For starters aim them towards the back of the deck.. Then listen and play with there direction tell the center image is in the middle of the car, and is fairly deep.. Then add the tweeters and aim them to add the width and height.. after that i will play with both a little to fine tune things..
Like most things.. sometimes it works. depends on the car.
