2000 C230 Kompressor
non-Bose stereo help

Well I have a 2000 c230 Kompressor that has a stock stereo I need replaced. Im trying to have 6.5" infinity component speakers installed in the front doors, but my question is where can I have the tweeter installed? Would it be possible to have the tweeters wired in the dash like where the Bose tweeters should be (by the way the car did not come with the Bose system so there are no wires or tweeters in the dash).

If you have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated and also I do have an amp for the component speakers.

are you running the wires or paying someone? if you dont how to adjust the cross over for the tweeter and dont know what you are doing i suggest paying someone. you can usually mount the tweeters on the door or the part the separates the door from the windshield. you know what im talking about?

Another option that will provide better sound projection installing the component speakers in a kick panel. I believe Q-Form makes a kick panel for your vehicle. Also running wiring in these cars is a real PIA.
