true they are designed to only have the cloth cover on them , but i would still like to have a A-pillar that has only slight modification.

I have the Kitno6 (with the crossblock) powered by steg 402 (image is too complicated to setup with kit no7)

Sometimes I just like to look at the crossover , that thing is awesome!

they won't fit directly in for the 0.5" OEM tweeters.

You'll have to nip a smalle piece of the "circle" and place them in....I used small zip ties to hold them in (smaller than what is shown in my pic)

getting the A-pillar back on is the fun part....

No kidding. I pulled one looking for a rattle and spent a good amount of time getting that front bottom "L" clipped back into the slot in the dash top. Kept coming loose when the rest of the pillar cover was positioned properly. Then as usual, it all came together like it was nothing.
