Indeed it did - requires some eqing. I'm doing what you said put the tweeters as wide as possible and I'm waiting for the a-pilar molds to dry. I'm off work till wednesday so that should give me anple time to wrap up all 4 molds. Photo's are to come!

Nice job fitting them by the dash, I think that looks pretty good. I like how there's already room there for them to fit.

Let me know how you like the 6.5" focal drivers. I was thinking about getting their 13ks woofer for more mid-bass up front or one of their 6.5" drivers.

Regarding the tweeters......... I've found that tweeters are VERY dependent on the angle they are set towards the listener. Most of the time I've angled them parallel along the curve of the glass and slightly upwards.......... most of the time, but not always (!) It helps with that driver's side tweeter being so close to the person sitting in the driver's seat. You can almost get away with VERY little processing.

Mids: With such a deep dash, it would be nice to get those mids as far away as possible and also play with the angles. Mids I've always found to be the absolute hardest to setup and require the most attention as they are a combination of getting the angles right and trying to get the PLD's equalized. They REALLY anchour the success of your front stage.

07 Honda Fit - they are pretty huge - photos don't give them justice. my best guess is 20l to 30L - what can i do to test the air space?
