If the grille isn't very heavy, I used to have this black mastic stuff that you just used a little ball of it in the corner or wherever and the grille sticks to it. Kindofa bubble gum fix.

Quality double tape should work, cheap stuff may dry out and fail.

Hot glue gun?

 

hot glue gun would bee i little to permanent i think....who makes quality double sided tape? 3m?
im going to post some pictures....tell me what you think...

 

so yea i just cut a hole and shoved in the surface mount assembly....you cant see very well but the radii match up very well....sooooo did i do good? i took the grill cloth off and i liked what i seen underneath so i didnt bother putting the cloth back on.... God bless the dremel

 

Ya hgg is too much.
3M is good quality, make sure its not the permanent stuff.

Ahh the pic...

That tweet sure fills up that grille eh?!!

Good idea lose the cloth, I think it looks good.

So is it one of those tabs you lost?

You did good so far.

th other one is finished also, they are not identicle but close enough.i was off by a maybe 1 mm, but you can only tell when they are close together and when there mounted on the dash there on opposite ends. Only i will know there not perfect and you guys of course. Yea i had to cut out the other clip, had to sacrifice it for the team.. ... a little too close for comfort but overall im satisfied

****part 1 of my first car install ever****

there close enough i think eh??!!

 

You can't tell where they are off from the pictures - close enough indeed [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Good idea about mounting the X-overs far, far away. I just had a problem my X-over picking up induced noise. The trunk seems a little bit far, but if you don't want problems, do what you've got to do.

 

nice thanks, i just ran the power wire today, seemed like it took forever...me and my buddy didnt want to drill into the firewall so we had to find a way to get it through with one of the existing openings, eventually found one and fed her through then under the sill plates and too the trunk and that was it for today. what gage wire should i get to run to the tweets??? i dont really know what gage is on there already

 

Seems like about 20awg or so on the tweet, 16awg speaker wire is a good all around size for the comps.
