Exclamation FIT2011 Tweeters over instrument panel how to make those

I've a 2011 FIT. Foreigner living in China and I just finished installing sound deadening everywhere ( roof, floor, doors, etc) I am keeping the same Stereo for now, but this model comes only with 2 speakers in the front ( which we all know they suck) and I have upgraded them 2 years ago for a Couple of Alpine SPS-600.

Now i purchased Alpine SPS-610C-G which are 2x Woofers and 2x Tweeters.

I don't have the space for the Tweeters over the Instrument panel like all of you do have.

I am wondering if someone has done this DIY for the tweeters....

Here is how the car looks like without the Tweeters

Perfect opportunity to modify your dash and mount the tweeters how you like them.

Could also mount them somewhere on the door panel.

Do the alpines offer a center speaker mount for the tweeters so the assembly is completely like a normal speaker?

I am not much into putting the tweeters at the door panels.
I am quite OBSSESSED about putting the tweeters at the end corners of the Instrument panel end ( right and left corners) as you see in the picture of new Fit...

I can reach with my hand and touch the Right sided corner has some space behing the AC duct. Haven't been able to reach the Left side yet...

I just managed to dig under the dash and find out some lies that I think are used for some FIT models, so I decided to dig and put my own tweeters there... Sound is quite good now...

Original Condition:


Below dash board are the markers of a hole for some FIT models



Marking the location of the hole






Tweeter Installed
