I fished a box out of storage. I can fit a pair in a flat-rate USPS box so $12/pair covers my costs if anyone wants a set. Again, they are not stock, but do have the stock mounting location and an undbadged black metal grill. The mount was desgined for the vifa ne19vt series drivers, available at parts express or other transducer resellers:

Just got Hans's tweeter cups and they are perfect for this application when using the same tweeters he originally did.
The ADS tweeters I tried to fit in them are easily twice the size. So some mods are needed
All in all they are great and I highly recommend anyone with 84+ door panels to use them in place of the original tweeters.

I haven't checked the tweeters in the rear recently, but I do know they are toast. Do you know if they are the same tweeter units as the fronts?
Thanks for checking!

I have plenty more of these. I just need to run down and get another box out of storage.
The mounting pattern is the same front and back, but you may not be able to get the driver in there with the angle. You should be able to make a small adapter ring to mount them flush and just cut out the angled section.

Hi, friends. Long time no see.
For more than a decade, I've been working on and off on a solution to this problem. Now, with the purchase of a 3D printer, I think I have it.
This is a door tweeter enclosure (the tweeter fires forward at a 20º angle, apparently to bounce the sound off the windshield) sized for an MB Quart 25 tweeter. It's set up for gluing the tweeter in, but before I finalize it I'll probably make the tweeter snap in.
Anyone need one? Any improvements you'd like to see?

thanks for the response!
I'm upgrading the speakers in my 87 928 and I noticed that the later year 928's with the 10 speakers have a different tweeter sweaker, does the speaker grille snap on or does it screw on?
