Default Speaker on the Glove Box

Well, my 88's weatherproofing is starting to fail me and I was getting water on my door speakers when I would wash it. So I was driving along today and an idea struck me. I thought to myself as I fiddled with something in the glove box, "Hmmm, there seems to be plenty of space in here to accomodate a speaker and still leave room for the essentials (registration, proof of insurance, etc.). So I think I'm going to put the speaker mount on the front so it faces out towards the passenger seat and just make it happen with the wiring and all. Any thoughts, comments, suggestions? Also, if you have any ideas for the driver's side speaker that would be awesome too. !Encanto musica mucha!

It would be aimed at the passengers crotch. Good if it's a girl and it was a sub, but bad for tweet tweet. Unless the '88 is different than I am thinking.

Post a pic of the dash. I am thinking the vents would be a better place, or on the back of the rearview. Wait... what size speaker are we talking about?

How about this: save yourself that. Go out and get some Infinity or rockford marine speakers?

Negative, saving up for a bike dude and I'm not trying to drop a few hundred into the ride right now. As for the speakers aiming at the crotch of the passenger, cool. I really don't have passngers riding with me that much so that's not of concern. I'll get the pic up when the sun rises tomorrow morning.
