My tweeters are mounted in the sails, They are right next to the circle vents on the top of my dash.

When I put on the defrost it pushes hot air basically right onto the tweeter and I am worried about them getting too hot once I get them amped.

Should this be something to worry about, Or can tweeters withstand a massive amount of heat.

Most cars have crappy cheap thin plastic to run the vents if that plastic can do it your quality audio can do it,

Way back in the day I had tweeters installed in the vents and after 3 years were perfectly fine and re-used in my other car for at least 5 years (sold the car with them still installed).

well I remember leaving out a CD on the dash in my first car- when I came back the CD was perfectly molded to the shape of the dash... and that's with a CD which suppose to reflect most of the energy (read: heat).... I would not worry about heat from the heater, but more about condensation when AC is on and if they are anywhere close to that vent (or directly inside) then condensation might build up... but that's just theory, and we all know theory never works so like others say- don't worry about it.

P.s. plus if you look at most of the door installs the drivers are in direct contact with water/ mist/ high humidity etc- so they must be pretty durable.
