Gauge location with custom tweeters in the a piller?

I am getting a set of tweeters put in my A pillars, some nice Memphis components.

I want to keep my handle to get in my truck ( I have no step bar) and still want to get some gauges..

Where else could I mount the gauges on my 03 CC?

You should have plenty of room to put the tweeters and a couple of gauges in the A pillar. The tweeters need to be down low on the pillar closer to the dash.

Depending on how tall you are and how elevated your seat is (if its power seat) the tweeter should be at or just below shoulder level.

I have the over head pod for my gauges( pyro, tranny, and boost). I like mine there. It helps keep the sleeper look to my truck and they are easily seen, because you use your rearview mirrow anyway, so you can just glance at your mirrors. Here is a pic of my overhead gauges. ]

I like my over the mirror mount, easy to read, doesn't block view, blocks morning or evening sun. The mount was $50.

I have the over the rearview mirror setup as well. Mine required some modification to get the mirror up enough to see out the back window. Make sure you find a good ground, it is critical.
