Aim your tweeters away from glass and flat panels, to avoid second reflections and fool your brain with unreal signals. Without a processor left tweeter may be more off axis to lower the level since right tweeter would be more on-axis towards your right ear. In other words you need to balance the tweeters so it feels like you are in the middle. If after playing music for a while your Left ear hurts that means the Left tweeter is playing louder, a mechanical way to fix this is having the Left tweeter off-axis to minimize the level, you can play with the HU's Balance and with high frequency sounds (like a female voice) you can actually have a better center image, give it a try. How I did mine, I went a step further and been able to control each tweeter with a processor, Left tweeter was aiming to my Left ear (my tweeters had a very bad off-axis response) so reflection on the window are minimal. And Right tweeter aimin at my Right ear. In the CLS and in my CLA with OEM sound system I do this see below.... move the balance towards the left side a bit to get a little bit of center image, you can play with it move it left and right and yes the high frequencies would move left to right, try to center it in the middle of your dash...

If you put your speakers closer together, you will reduce the width of your stage. D.

Ok, with this set up, the stage was very narrow, tweeter on sail panels helped the stage width but wasn't natural, you could get a really good center image very sharp but depth wasn't good either, why...? speakers are too close to your ears.

Moving the tweeter to the a-pillar didn't help, I gain so much reflections from the windshield and it started to be very hard for tuning. Stage width suffer a lot, I did gain some depth by moving the speakers away from me but didn't work any way. D.

This crazy idea of the subwoofer was really GOOD!
it was AWESOME!!!, but with a penalty in power (SPL). I got really good Bass up front very natural but.... I was lacking of "cone area" so the very low end wasn't strong enough to blow your ears, not a bad thing for SQ at moderate volume... but I had to push the limits of the little subwoofer all the time. Like the race between a Prius and a BMW M3 where the Toyota was going as fast as possible and the M3 was just following behind. At the end the M3 did better MPG than the Prius. Here is the LINK just FF to minute 4 and watch. http://youtu.be/JmxUsGiGp3w D.

At some point I had the image below... what I was doing wrong... it's called "LEVELS" the left speaker was kind of off-axis to my left ear and right speaker was more on-axis to my left ear so at some point will sound louder in my right ear, and "V" shape stage of the 7 drums that should be like a straight arrangement got distorted by not having a balance between speakers.
A very common factor in car Audio at early stages. Lowering the levels on the right speaker... "problem solved" I just didn't know! D.

This little sub is one of the best experiences that I will remember for ever!
Great solution if you have a small trunk or don't have one. Don't subestimate the size of it's 6.5" woofer. It's just awesome! D.

Hi YarisWorld, I'm back to reality with all this white stuff!
While I was there I saw some amazing Yaris on the road, I couldn't take pictures since it was not a good idea to bring my new iPhone to the streets, not safe. But here are some pictures I got online. They have a Yaris sedan that looks like a Camry! D.
