For those who use components: Where did you place your tweeters?

I will be running a set of components in a 4th gen maxima soon. Where did you place your tweeters for the best sound? I was thinking the simplest, but not the most affective way would be at the top/front of the door. How about at the bottom of the a pillar? Any ideas?
Thanks

Mirrors, mounted on double sided tap.. Angled towards the driver..

I am running ROckford Fanatic X 6" components.. witht eh X-overs in the doors...

I find that the sound staging is best when tweeters are mounted closer to ear level.. ANd there is no permenant screws necessary

You had to drill a hole though, to run the wires to the tweets, correct? Also where did you place your crossovers?

Cross overs are mounted inside the door panel (you will be able to find soome space)..

and no you dont have to drill holes... THere is a crack between the door panel and the black piece behind the mirror.. you can feed the wires there.. ITs not noticeable..
