Fitting Tweeters
« on: 27 February 2008, 12:49 »
i am gonna fit sum tweeters into the plastic trim covering the wing mirror srews on a mk2 golf using the same technique as this http://www.talkaudio.co.uk/vbb/showthread.php?t=159311 but pointing at a 45 degree angle towards u and was wondering would it be better to use self tapping screw to put it back on or would the plastic clips hold it without falling off

I would go with the original plan, put them on the "sail panel" on the back of the mirror - it will sound loads better.

I drilled mine, and fitted with black countersunk head screws into small plastic plugs pushed into the original mounting holes - sort of like a rawplug if you get me.  Saves them falling off.

Give us some more info russ, pic's and a write up plix  :grin:

I want to replace my front speakers, they're  :sick:

and maybe this is the way  :smiley:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
