I agree, midwoofers should always be in the door because they are more unidirectional that tweets and midrange speakers, if you can get them to fit, some sort of enclosure would make use of it's piston range and give you the feeling that the bass is comming front in front of you rather than behind (like most systems are).
As far as waveguides go, I wouldn't mind them, but if I got them, I couldn't drive the car since i would not fit. My legs are right up against the dash with the seat as far back as it will go.
Sorry to hear that.
I would love to install some on my 'tour but I'm not sure I want to spend the money on the 31 band, Mono EQ's either. You can't appreciate them unless you tweak them to perfection. As far as fitment, I think they would blend in real nice.
Any suggestions?
