I'm finally going to remove my A pillar to install my tweeters, is there alot I gotta be cautious about? Or should I just not mess with it? Thanx!

I just cut a hole in the triangular piece that covers the back of the side mirrors. And if your oign that becafe of the clips they break easily very easily.

^that of course only works if you have electronic mirrors on both sides (my 1990 coupe doesn't).

So is this piece too brittle to mount tweeters in?

Bigpete123

I don't think so.

But what are you planning on doing exactly? Just screwing the tweeters into the panel, or fiberglassing/molding it in?

Well I don't have door speakers and my components I went on and put in the back, but now I jealous cause the clearity in the rear is better when I never even have people back there. So I have the tweeters sitting flush in the c pillars and would like to move them to the front pillars and sit flush there so I will be using a hole saw. and the holes in the rear now, I'll probly get amg badges or hood emblems to fill those spots.


I got so much going on at once, I got a front spoiler on order, debating on my suspension setup, moving, and starting to tear down the engine in my explorer for performance heads and a supercharger setup. Also just got a husky puppy. I just got my carat d. truck spoiler installed and painted.... and still I'm not the one to learn.

I haven't removed my A pillars before, but I would be surprised if there is enough room for you to simply cut a hole and stick the tweeters in there. Of course you'll figure that out for sure when you remove the trim. But I would be very surprised if they are too brittle or weak to hold a tweeter in that way.

did you finally get the AMG front spoiler?

Give me an honest I'll say september and all my projects should be done, my explorer is more valuble to me than the benz (my first ride)
