Let me know if yours show up. I ordered a set over a month ago, I emailed Ken who owns the place a dozen times he never emailed back. I got his home phone through pay pal....called and left several messages he never returned my calls, finally his little daughter picked up the phone and I got a hold of him. He told me some sad story about how his daughter got in a car wreck in Colorado and was late shipping and would ship it the next day, with 50% off the price, that was 3 weeks ago, another dozen emails and calls and I had to get me money refunded through the CC company. Good Luck

Hi guys first post, I registered just to let you know I'm in the same boat. Paid for tweeters on 9-6-10 and haven't heard a peep; no emails, no calls, no tracking numbers, NOTHING yet. It's been 17 days!!! from "Jeeptweeters.com" or Ken "my daughter crashed her car so I can't reply to emails but I'll take your money" Tweeterboy.

There is simply no excuse for this type of behavior. These speakers (and better ones) can be purchased MANY places elsewhere. My recommendation is to AVOID JEEPTWEETERS.COM, unless you like people taking your money and ignoring you afterwards. Typical AHOLE online business practices. Hopefully this post will cost him some future sales. AVOID these pricks. :thumbdown:

Just bought a set of kicker KS350's to replace the crappy blown factory ones! Hope they sound great. Good deal brand new on ebay for 35 bones

Go to PC Richard or MTX.com and get some good 3way speakers for the doors, leave the tweeters unpluged, and get a sub.

I just did the glue method, actually I used some black indoor/outdoor sealer caulk I had lying around. It was extremely quick and easy. Just pop the front trim with a flat tool, put something under the tool to protect the dash so you don't scrape it with the bottom side of the tool when prying. It pops up easily, takes 10 seconds to remove. Then I just unclipped the speakers, tore off the old dust covers, slathered a good amount of goo around the edges of the speakers (they were all torn up) let them dry for two hours, reclipped and screwed them back in, popped the trim back down and PRESTO!! Problem solved. I'm actually quite amazed at how ridiculously easy and quick it was. 15 min (besides drying time) of work. No sweat. I used a vice-grip holding a phillips bit to screw/unscrew the speakers. Sounds fine now. Yes, new speakers I'm sure would sound better, but this was super easy, quick, and free!

Ran that setup in my friend's WJ for a while. Its great but if you crank them long enough the voice coil overheats and blows, but that takes a LOT to do. I was going to run mine re-sealed for a while but i decided to get the kickers for an upgrade solution

He's a registered vendor on this site, this type of seller should be pulled from the vender list and his ads pulled from this site. Who could we report this to on Jeepforum to get him pulled?

Same thing happened to me I joined this site so I could complain and hopefullly save others the annoyance....
I have his cell 704-497-6848 and think his homephone 980-322-7231 and have been calling 5 times a day- no answer.

Also lipripper I remember you posted a thread about buying an ECU from allcomputerresources.com. Is it still holding up? Or should I avoid them just like jeeptweeter.com
