Default installing component systems

I'm just trying to get an idea of how people have installed their component speakers in their trucks. If you have pictures and/or details of how you put them in that'd be awesome. I have a SCab but I'm more worried about the front doors so any install is fine

I took off the rear door panels, but the front doors, you just have to remove the trim piece next to the door handles. The piece that looks like mesh. Then just hook up the wires. The rear doors are a bit more tricky. The top part just pops right off, but the bottom half has a bolt on the bottom and a bolt under the door handle. I recommend installing some hushmat while youre at it. It makes the sound so much better

is there a built in spot for tweets? or is there only one in trucks with the audiophile system?

When you take off the mesh panel, there is a cutout above the armrest precut for tweeters. You can't miss it
