Default Planned Audio Setup

I am planning on installing an audio system in my base 370z. I have been reading the forums for awhile, and I know that there are many knowledgeable people on these forums. I would appreciate a critiquing of the planned install (ie. better options, more cost effective options, etc.)

Headunit: Alpine CDA9886 or CDA9887 ($300/$330 from woofersetc.com, not sure of the difference)


Amplifier: JL Audio HD900/5 ($759 from local dealer)


Components: Focal 165 KR2 2-way components ($599 from local dealer) - I will only be running front components so with the 4-channel part of the amp bridged the components will be getting 150W x 2


Subwoofer: JL Audio 12w6v2 ($355 from local dealer)


Subwoofer Enclosure: ZEnclosure 12” rear-firing enclosure ($135)

Component Spacers: ZEnclosure ($20)

Does anyone have any suggestions how/where to mount the tweeters? Obviously, they can be mounted in the dash where the stock tweeters are located, but I have also seen them mounted in the pillars above/in front of the windows (ie. Our first 370Z build.). Would this be the optimal place to place them?
Thank you very much for your input.
