FIRST question is:

SECOND question is:
where should i put my tweeters? on the door handle bit or on plastic cover which is by the mirror, or any other ideas??
cheers!

you could go for subtle, but with a difference. - at an angle instead of being stright. eg, my old boot install:

go for the suttle boot install mate, will take less work and money to do
As for the tweeters, put them either in the handles or the pillars People will say "yea but for SQ you want them in door pockets", but its total bollocks. Yea the delay in sound from the left side and the drivers side will make it sound like its even, but as soon as you wack someone is the passenger seat it goes tits up  (however im sure someone will say no it doesnt, but high frequencies get absorbed real easy, ie: place your hand in line of you tweeter and ears of your hifi speaker and you will see what i mean. No imagine placing the side of a car seat in its way or someones body  ) To be honest, ive got mine in the handles and they sound great. If im in a fussy mood i just adjust the balance to the left side (if no ones in the passenger seat) a tad and it evens it all up
