Will aftermarket tweeters fit in the stock spot?
I am sure this has been answered before but will aftermarket tweeters fit into the pillar spot?

yes, you just may have to make yourself a mount for the aftermarket tweeter

I used hot glue and attached my aftermarket tweets to the stock mounts, if your going to stay on the roads and not rally your car this should be fine.....(the custom mount option is good too  )

Here's how I did it. Starting the slow process of my stereo install. . .. I would find a different adhesive, or use a higher quality hot glue. I've had to reglue one of them already. I haven't seen them recently so I may have to do it again since it's gotten cold.

Yeah they should. I put in my Polk MOMO tweeters in the stock location. I just used double sided tape. and they've stayed in place for at least a year so far.
