    2011+ Stock tweeter direct replacement...

    I have been checking on Crutchfield and reading here and NASOIC, but can't seem to find a simple answer. Is there a tweeter or set of components that comes with a tweeter that can easily fit in the stock tweeter location with no cutting/modding? I know stock location isn't best SQ-wise, but I'm going for a completely stock looking setup. Thanks guys.

    Its very hard ,since the stock tweeters is so puny.There aren't many that will fit directly.At least the good ones won't.

    If you're not willing to install them in the kick panels or A-Pillar, I would just get a set of coaxial speakers instead.

    I haven't come across a set that are a direct fit but it would only take a little time with a dremel to make it look pretty good.

    +1^ it only took about 10-15 minutes and I had the new tweeters in the stock location in the front.

    I am eventually going to have the stuff installed by a good car audio place. I am TERRIBLE with electronics and more importantly pulling apart the plastics of these cars to get at everything. I know a shop would have no problem installing tweeters anywhere, but I also know it would be cheaper for me if they could more or less plop some tweeters in the stock location. Coaxials are an option I guess, my only concern is I haven't had coaxials in a car in years...wondering if my legs down there will really hurt the sound. Oh well, more decisions!
