When I called Bernardi parts, I had them look them up in the inventory system. I also went to my local dealership and had them check inventory as well, and got the same answer.

I didn't check Majestic parts, because they have an insane handling fee for a small item.

No it's actually pretty good placement because the path length difference between the two tweeters is minimized. Closer to the windshield would be ideal so that the sound waves that bounce off the windshield wouldn't arrive that much later than the waves coming at you straight from the tweeter.
Sorry, I was unclear. Your pioneer tweeters have a large dome on top, and to fit that under the stock grille, they would have to be deep into the dash, which may not be ideal. The stock tweeter locations appear fine, i was more concerned with the depth.

... uh, that's still not very clear. I need sleep. sorry

I see what you're trying to say now. I was thinking about that also and I might have to cut off the grill. I might end up selling them though because of all the trouble it's going to take to get them to work right. I'm sure I can find some smaller, less complicated but good quality tweeters.

aftermarket speaker manufacturers definitely need to start
thinking about separating their cross overs for the woofer and
tweeter to make it easier for the typical weekend bolt-on guy
to install separates on their cars that have tweeters on the dash.

make it like a in-line crossover wireharness or something.
choke coil for the woofer line and capacitor for the tweeter line.
