Question about tweeter's on 03

I want to change the tweeters on my oem non-Bose sound system for my 03 Maxima. I have been reading some posts and the only ones that I found that could replace those are these:

Polk Audio EX3500 Tweeters
JL Audio Tweeters
Morel MDT12 Tweeters
Any others?

Which would you pick?
Where can you get these?
Are they easy to install?

Thanks for the info.

Any 3/4" - 1" tweeter will fit in that location.

I think most of these tweeters will sound better than stock. I think that the Morel's sound pretty good and they are cheap. You can purchase them from www.madisound.com. I think Max Fidelity also has some small neodymium tweeters which are Dynaudio knock-offs and can be purchased from www.solen.ca. I know ScanSpeak has a really high end (read expensive) car audio tweeter. You could probably get it from Madisound or www.speakercity.com (be sure to look on their car audio page). A big question for you is this: How much do you want to pay? Also, since this is a non-Bose system, you don't have an aftermarket amp, so efficiency of the tweeter will be more important. I didn't realize that the non-Bose setup had tweeters in the A pillar though.
