upon looking over your pictures more closely, if you look at the surface cups you see three tabs, those are most likely the tabs that are locking the tweeter into the cup.

Got it, Steve - wasn't looking at it either/or.
Piece-o-cake, now.
Ranked No. #1 in initial quality
Idiots, simply by being idiots, seem capable of achieving randomly bad things that are beyond the imaginings of sensible people.
Just remembered to finish this-
The Vifas sound GREAT.
Range is very good, even a bit of bass-ish response - very crisp and clear, and the staging is exceptional.
The Precision Power tweeters are a great compliment to the Vifas, too.
It sounds good enough that it took me a few minutes to discover the passenger's door speaker wasn't even broadcasting (wasn't even hooked-up! ).
Highly recommended speakers, for sure.
I'm running about 75WATTS to my tweeters, How would you rate the sound quality of this for a tweeter? Does it produce good high's?

I'm pushing 100W at them and I haven't heard any objections at all, Boris.
I would describe the sound as accurate, uncolored, and capable of excessive/overpowering volume without losing character - they really only required a quick leveling to fit anything I threw at them, and I listened to them fully to either side, through every cross the HU had.
Keep in mind that I am using these with the Precision Power tweets, which are basically, what, just above 14-15K?
I had them tuned all the way in-and-out of the mix, too...the only other things the amp is driving are the PP 6-inchers.
I really couldn't be happier with them, Boris.
I'll call them a 9 - for the price, they are stunning.
Hats off The Guru for locating them.
EDIT:
I would say they are perfectly capable of carrying the front end/dash burden with no augmentation.
the absolute best dash speaker for our car is a Pioneer stage4 062prs 2-5/8"(fits perfect!) a bit pricey($450 a pr.)but they are so worth it trust me! i have over $8,000 in my audio system in my 3000gt and these are my most valued piece(though not the most expensive piece in my car!) you would never believe how loud/clear
I can think of many MANY other speakers to put in there that once properly set up and balanced your ears would not even tell that you didn't spend 450.00 on speakers.
I'm still rocking the 220gto's. I'm not gonna throw components in there, but I'd entertain other options in the $100 range or less. And I'm ok with using a toilet flange as a mount...just like I have in there now.
if you want a really high end speaker($450 a pr) get the Pioneer Ts-S062prs they can be had for $325 on sale but so worth it the sound almost as good as my $750 polk door speakers loud/clear and go unbelievably low for such a small speaker(these are mids not tweets! they add a ton to the front stage(especially vocals!) oh and fit perfect in our dash location!
