Best way to mount door tweeters in door?

[xanatost]

What is the best way to mount door tweeters in the factory locations in the door? I got a set of Memphis tweeters and 6.5 for my doors. The 6's went in fine but the tweets are a lot bigger than the factory ones. I am trying to do it to where it looks factory and hidden out of the prying eyes. Any pics or ides let me know. Thanks

perhaps hot glue them in place under the tweeter grills.

Are they smaller than the grills?

Not smaller just a little wider and deeper. Was thinking about using a heat gun and heating up the plastic and seeing if I can mold it a little better and then glue gun to stay in place. What do y'all think?? If anyone got any pic of there's post them. Maybe give me some ideas

I personally would get a hot glue gun, glue the tweeter where it needs to be at in order for the grill to go back over it, Then make a bracket of some sort to hold it up.... i dont remember how much room is behind the tweeter.... But you can get metal backstrapping and make a custom bracket just bend it the way you need it

Also, are the speakers you installed 6 or 6.5s?
did you need to make or buy a adapter for them to fit in correctly?

When I mounted my hertz tweeters in the factory location,I used a Dremel tool with a sanding drum. I took a little off at time till it fit snug. No adhesives on it,just very snug fit.

That's what I did. Took the drimal and hot glued. Worked like a charm
