Just looking at tweeters which ones did you go for? And any modifications to make them fit?

The Focal PS165V are an all in one front door solution - they include the main speaker, crossover and tweeter.
There are loads of other options out there for all price ranges, not only the Focals - I would recommend them though.
Kits like that are a matched set so the frequencies the main speaker and tweeters produce cross nicely as they're designed to work with each other.
Mounting the tweeters was simple, they sit nicely in the mount already behind the grill in the door (above the door card next to the dash).
I used a lot of information from these two threads when doing my research (you can see the tweeter mounts in both threads);

Thanks for the pointers. The thing is the speakers will be done at a later point so at the moment i just want to buy a decent set of tweeters to add some treble as the standard setup lacks this alot. But not sure what set will fit without any adaption.
