Right i bought these bits at a tidy price...

Focal 165 KF Components



Nominal power: 80W
Sensitivity (2.8V/1m):91dB
Frequency response: 60Hz - 22kHz

Audison 2.500 2 Channel Amp





I have been reccomended to move the tweeter from the standard position up to the mirror covers. Has anyone else done this in the corsa?

Actually creating the mountings is not a problem, im doing a full fibreglass build this time so im not bothered about the work involved, only if it will ctually improve things...

everyone hears things differently, put the tweeters on a long piece of cable and blu tack them in different positions to see which you prefer.

And well done on getting that amp mate serious bit of kit

I was planning to build a mdf section to add to the mirror plastic and fibreglass it smooth.....

i just cut a hole out just big enough to fit the tweet through and the fibrefilled it in from behind and then smooth in with filler!
