I would love to hear this car myself, im currently doing a very similar setup in my 2002 civic coupe. Im running a 3 way setup with a pillar pods and the mids in the doors currently but plan to move the mids from the doors to the kicks some time this summer. Have you actually had a chance to listen to the mid bass's in the kicks yet, and if so how do they sound? Also did you have as many problems with door vibrations as I did because I find it nearly impossible to take all the vibrations out of these doors just due to the type of metal used and the way the are constructed? Heres pics of the pods in my car http://www.canadiancaraudio.com/online/install-related/152985-building-mid-pods-5.html

the reason i am going to kicks with mids is even with 4 layers of dynamat and 5/8 mdf on the inside skin of the door............ it still rattled....... sooooooo off to kicks.. i have tested this week and the kicks work very well with no rattles...

Looks great Randy. I think if you rotated the tweeter about 2.5degrees CCW that it would really open things up..

ouch!!!!!!!!!! hey that rearview mirror happens to be my back up camera screen and a 7 inch t.v. monitor!!!!! as far as screw head placement, i tried it in several positions as the dispertion pattern changes with the phase plug.... and this positon seemed to work best... also the manual told me to place it with the plug that way.
