Hi all! I got a Maxima GXE without the Bose sound system. I recently bought some excellents components 2 way speakers and tweeters.

The things is that i dunno where to put my tweeters. I was about to drill some holes in the doors near the door handle and i think about it a second.

So my question is does Maxima with Bose sound system have a place where are some tweeters? "A" pillars? Doors? Behind the side mirroirs?

If you can post pics of where the tweeters goes it would be very appreciate!!

Thanks guys!

 

Heres a picture from Google, beside the door handle.

 

The audio section might help you.

 

Since you have a '96, you're better off buying a-pillars that have the tweeter grill already built into them. I don't remember what year they switched, but Bose cars (pre-'97 I THINK) have the tweeter in the a-pillar. I know mine does.

 

I recently bought a component system myself and I wanted to put the tweets in the A-pillar. But once I took it off i saw that there is really no room for an aftermarket tweeter.

the factory tweeter is like 1/4" deep and needs hardly any room, but aftermarkets are usually much deeper. I thought about cutting into the metal of the pillar, but figured that was a bad idea so i just drilled holes in the door just like the picture above.

I had to remove the whole door panel to do it. btw, running the speaker wire from the door to the interior is a pain in the A.

 

Mount them in your a pillars, a little resin and bondo and sanding will give you a project you are proud of when finished..were's my digital cam when I need it? I'll TRY and remember to post a pic. Cut the plastic on the pillar push the tweet (wrapped in tape or foil)as far til it touches the metal, build up bondo around it and smooth it out.

 

Yeah, I wish I could get some earlier door panels and mount my tweeters in my A pillars... anyone have pics of how that looks? And also, has it been done to a '97-99 yet?

 

Does somebody have a picture of the "A" pillar factory mounting?

My new tweeters have a 2" inch diameter. How much is the diameter of factory tweeters?

 

Old, crappy picture of my interior, but you get the jist of where the tweeter is:

 

Excellent thanks friend!! I will try to get some and see what i'm gonna do with that!
