2008 wing panels with tweeter mounts...

anybody have specs on these? like tweeter mounting size?? not sure wether or not to get these or just drill the original ones and make them fit......

on a side note, they are 80$ a side from ford with the tweeter and 18$ without. do they come with factory tweeters ?

they fit BUT theres gonna be an unsightly gap between the panel and the wing panel if you are putting it on a pre 2008 its because the 2008 and up door panels ar slightly taller, but if You are putting them in an 2008 truck I'd say Buy em' The OEM look is still the cleanest in my books, the tweeter size for the oem one is 1.5 inches...

I'm In the midst of doing the 2008 Door panels in My 2005, I'll have a write up on it soon, but a couple of side notes for you, Wiring for the Main window and lock switches are completely different, there will be som re- pinning and re-wiring involved, I have yet to tackle that in my swap, there is also the inner "door handle cups" that need to be changed, will post more pics and info when swap is complete ....
