Pioneer Speakers TS-D1720C
I want to get a set of Pioneer Speakers TS-D1720C but I wanted to see if anyone has these that can provide some feed back as far as fitment and highway top down quality. Maybe if anyone has had some positive/negative w/ theses speakers that can help me out. Thanks!

Top down will be much more a reflection of the head unit / power than the speakers themselves. If you want to upgrade to hear with the top down, change the radio first, speakers second.
I have the step up 720PRS set, not the D1720C. I needed spacers--not plug and play, and I really like the sound for the money. (The 720PRS set runs ~$250-ish street price.) A guy from a local audio shop said he thought the D1720C's fit without modifications, but he didn't know for sure.
If you're just looking for a new radio plus speakers upgrade, have the radio, and your end state will have no amps, sub, or wiring run, they're probably a decent option. Boston has a set that people love for that application too; there are quite a few sets that have had good reviews on the board.
But I haven't heard anything (good or bad) about the 1720Cs in this car.

I have an upgraded HU. I'm just concerned about fitment (Voice Coil too big) and audio quality with an amp running them. I guess it'll just be trial and error.

I had these installed yesterday. There is a spike in the upper midrange that is ear piercing to me. Other than that I am impressed with these speakers. My head unit doesn't have a robust EQ section so I can't dial it out.

check the crossover, you can attenuate the tweeter. wire the tweeter positive to the "level control -3db +" terminal

I already have my tweeters set with the -3db. The problem area is right near the xover point I am guessing the 2Khz area or upper vocal range.
As for the tweeter mounts I pulled my door panel yesterday to tighten down some stuff so I wish I saw your request earlier or I would have taken some pictures for you of the backside. There is nothing to see from the front.
