Default Tweeter help?

In my coupe I have tweeters in my door panels, they originally were facing me in the drivers seat. However the sound felt uneven and in the passenger seat, the driver tweeter was being obstructed by the steering column. So I pointed them instead at the windshield, sounds better for the passenger but about the same for me in the drivers seat. Highs more noticeable on my right then my left.

Any thoughts? I can post pics tomorrow.

Highs are very directional, bouncing the highs off the glass will put them out of phase, but then again the stock locations suck anyway, the tweeters should actually be farther away from your ears then the mids, for proper time alignment, but then again, a car is a very poor "sound room" to begin with, so do what sounds best to you. 94
