actually the tweeter needs to go low on pillar. closer to dash. the distance between woofer and tweeter needs to be as close as possible

Do you know of anyone that makes an A Pillar cover that will house a tweeter for a first gen Camaro?

The TMI ones might. They are pretty sturdy pieces, I am going to use them and their one piece headliner.

Chris,
Please report back after you install the TMI headliner and A pillar moldings. I've been scratching my head trying to figure out how close to the OEM moldings they are. Unfortunately, TMI's website is less than stellar with product pictures. It looks like they come with the one-piece headliner kit, no?

BTW, thanks for the guidance regarding the RideTech set-up, your info was very much appreciated.

Chris,

Do you have a link/picture to the TMI A pillars? I looked on their website, under 1st gen product category, and have not been able to find it.

The A & B pillars are part of the headliner kit. There are references and photos in the install manual.

Just finished a system with the shop kick panels. After trying to sort out balance issues I would much prefer speaker in the door which would require custom door panel and tweeter up high either a pillar or top of door. The issue is you have alot of reflectivity of sound off the rear glass pushing the sound forward and with the front speakers buried under the dash, its hard to get a good balance from them. If was able to move the tweeters up high it would definitely help alot. I have been looking at moving to a pillars but its alot of work in a done car.
