I just got them in today. I only got to listen to them for like 15mins and still need to tune it.

Looking Good!! I am looking into the SEAS tweeters for my truck.

[holley2346 6]

Looks very nice.

[NB50 206]

Thanks guys. I have heard a couple people (who's opinions are respected) that run them with the Mach5's and speak well of the combo.

[NB50 206]

Made a template for the mount started cutting the mount when the jigsaw I was using attacked me. Seems the fan broke on the inside and one of the fan blades shot at me.

didn't go any farther then the shirt though.

Got all wiring done and amps installed. Still need to make temporary mounts for tweeters to play with positions, then final mounts, and to tune it. Still need to order deadening also.

[ABXX49 20]

Looks nice, Bromo. It's been a long time coming!

[nem 2,019]

Progress is looking good.

[NB50 206]

After looking at some build logs I saw someone using a PVC cap as a tweeter mount. I've decided to take the idea as I dont want to take the time and money to do the fiberglass I was originally thinking of. So I went to the hardware store picked up the supplies, and after $5 and 10min I had this.

Still need to hit them with some paint and then mount them.

With a tweeter mounted in one.

Got to do a little bit of tuning with the time alignment, and wow themusic has so much more depth it is like it is three dimensional.

[nem 2,019]

That is a cool mounting idea. Looks good!!

[Kanaworm$ 292]

Cool idea on the pvc! Install on the tweets looks great!

[NB50 206]

Thanks guys, I can't take credit for it though as I pulled it from a build log on another forum. I need to figure a way to tighten up the passenger side though as I drilled the hole a little big and it keeps tilting down. I put a nut on it but cant get it tight enough, was thinking about trying to hit it with some hot glue.

Maybe you could try a rubber oring.

[NB50 206]

That could work in conjunction with the nut that is on it, but the nut adds some depth to it and it is hitting the a pillar and pushing out the panel a little bit. If I could find a different nut that might work, hmm might be time to stroll around the hardware store. Thanks.

You could take the nut to a belt sander and make it thinner, to keep it from hitting the pillar.
