Move tweets to new location?

Here is my current configuration, I think I can get more....effectiveness? (is that the word I was looking for?)

I am thinking about adding a mid to where the two in the door are now and then moving the tweets up higher in the door possibly.

The one in the kick will stay and I am adding a 1" tweet to each A pillar so i think 2 - 1" in each door but higher will make sense. Am I way off? Suggestions? where should I put what? I am trying to keep door panels as stock as possible thus why I would add a mid to where they are now to cover up where their holes used to be.

Tweets down low is shitty, right? lol

Please help, thanks!

oh and each side is the same

My personal preference is tweeters ear level in the A pillars.

^ What he said. Most high frequency drivers aren't so great off-axis. Cars, surprisingly don't behave like your living room though. get some double sided tape and do some experimenting!

I find the area on the inside of the door on the other side of the side mirror to be great. Or on the dash playing off the windshield gave a wider soundstage in my experience.

I agree with the A pillars. Better to have them closer to ear level imo.

Take a look at a professional recording studio, they don't put the monitors on the ground facing your legs.
