Has anyone replaced just the dash tweeters and been pleased with the result?
How difficult is it to pull the top of the dash off to access the tweeters?

I'm not sure the sound for upgrading them, but I imagine tweeters would be the ones that are the most likely to be a simple signal. I kinda see it as a tweeter is a tweeter. The other speakers may be a bit different, but as long as it's low impedance and everything I can't see how the Bose tweeter would be magically different from others.
For the process of actually replacing them, I've heard it's not too bad, just annoying. IIRC you take off the A-pillars but they won't come off completely due to some bungee cords. Under them, there's two bolts in each corner that need to be taken out. After that, the upper dash apparently just pulls off.
Annoying part is trying to unscrew the tweeters underneath because the screws are so close to the windshield there's almost no clearance. Once you get them out you'd also have to make a custom mount for new ones to be held in by the same screws, but I think you can get some tweeter mounts that are just bendable metal with holes and you just bend it around the tweeter.
