Message	toward you. You want to perferably face them toward glass or a solid structure that will bounce of objects in the car and fill the entire car with the sound. Think of tweeters as throwing a rock in a pond. "the ripple effect" as sound junkies call it. So aim them either at the hatch glass or windshield. This is why the stock sound system in a Z sounds so good. The mid drivers are at your feet and the highs are bouncing off the hatch. You should be able to sit in your Z and not be able to pen point where the sound is coming from.
