Sorry, was bored but here's an Idea that I think some might like, havent seen anyone do the same yet.. might be wrong tho..

Installed some MB quart highs right by the small 1/4 window pointing at the driver(s)

Also my JL cleansweep to keep the OEM headunit and sound just as good as an aftermarket but keeping the theives away.

Next is to upgrade my old subs and old amps.

Nope, no one has done this yet, and there's a reason why...

With a properly tuned system, having more tweeters in the rear doesn't improve the acoustics, it actually throws them off. It all depends on how you set up your system... in me and applebonker's system, those tweets would do more to take away from the audio setup than add to it... more is not always better in the world of audio... but if you like em, that's all that matters... I still haven't seen you here in San Diego... you should hit me up to come and here my system.... just shoot me an email!

I'm with Doc on this one. Since I have a blown front mid, I'm lacking audio up front. I've got my rear fill on now to make up for this, but the imaging is horrible. I'll just have to deal with it until I replace the blown driver.

However, if you are running a multichannel source this might not be a bad idea. I'd have to hear it to see how it images, but I would think it would be decent when listening to a DVD or DVD-A. However, when you sell the car you're probably going to want to take the speaker out, which means you'll need to replace that interior panel (which can get expensive - certainly cheaper than Doc having to replace his custom A-Pillar finishers). Either way, the install looks clean, so I'll give you a
