Default 1st Gen Camaro Stereo System.

So I have an 67 Camaro and I'm 90 percent finished with it. The stereo system is giving me problems. I'm going with a killer system 2 10inch subwoofers and 2 6x9 speakers with amp and EQ... But the problem is where do I place the system to make it look great. I want you guys to post some pictures of your stereo system setups on your 1st gen camaros. You guys can also post ideas, I'm trying to get an idea how I want to set this up. Thanks.

Agree, 6.5in component speaker in the front (tweeter mounted high on the A-pilar) and 6x9in in the rear. Highly recommend TheShopLLC's setup:

This is the setup I'm going with if that helps any.

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?

Thumbs up

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

Default TMI A pillar

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?
John
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.
