Default Has anyone replaced the factory tweeters?

I have been thinking about replacing the front speakers for obvious reasons. I looked at some A/D/S coaxials and seperates. My question is has anyone actually removed the factory tweeter or modified it to replace it with a aftermarket one? Pictures would be nice.

I replaced the tweeters when I upgraded my audio system. The factory ones come out pretty easily. I had to trim down the plastic on the new tweeters, and even shave a little bit off of the factory cover, but I re-used the factory grille. Sorry no pix as it looks pretty much stock.

I replaced the factory tweeters with a set of jbls I had lying around...it fit behind the factory grill, so nothing looks different.
