Part of me hates you now....mostly because those are the speakers I wanted, i just couldn't wait for them to be available in the U.S. (I'm running the old school SPX 177r)
I'd LOVE to hear them and would be happy to help you throw them in.

the fiberglass mounted ones I currently have are a little more of a challange. I can set you up for fiberglass but i promised i wouldn't use any more fiberglass in the garage. (makes it smell horrible) If you wanted the fiberglass style, i'll be happy to help prep the area for you, but you'll have to lay the resin, sand apply the SEM coating and paint.

the original ones (just drill and mount) are a sinch and take about half an hour once the tweeters are wired.

- apply a thick first coat
- apply a second possibly a third coat if nessicary.
- Sand down to ~200gr if you're going to use SEM coating. (that's the part with the most labor involved)
- Apply SEM texture coat (second or 3rd coats if nessicary)
- Paint to match interior

I'll try to post this again as your original post showed you to be looking for an installer that is capable of helping you out in the Houston area:
www.rockstardesigns.net
Rocky has done quite a few A-pillar tweeter installs in C5 vettes.
Hope this helps if decide not to DIY.
otherwise, GL.
