As stupid as I feel for letting this happen, it has and I need suggestions for a solution. I have a pair of Alpine 6.5 components for my kicks. I had the box in my basement, and my cats got into them and were playing with some of the pieces for the tweeter mounts, also I have transported the box back and forth between my house and my parents, so the pieces could be anywhere. There are 3 mounting bracket styles that came with it, the flush mount, the surface mount, and an angled mount. For the flush and angled mount, there is an additional swivel piece that allows the tweeter angle to be adjusted. I am missing a swivel bracket and one of the surface mounts(which doesn't require the swivel bracket), thus making any combination of installion impossible. I have contacted the following: United States Pacific Coast Parts PH: 310-515-0207 / 800-421-5080 FX: 800-782-5747 www.pacparts.com

All of which are on Alpines parts distribution list, and none have responded that they have these pieces available. Now what can I do?

I'm really not trying to buy a whole new set for a $.50 piece. I can salvage pieces and make it work with the bracket style I don't want to use, and always figure it out later, but I'm really not looking into purchasing a whole new set as an option, but thanks anyway for the response.

No problem, I am just missing a couple of small pieces for mounting the tweeters. I can still use the set, but not with the mounting brackets that I wanted to use. The ones on the left are the flush mounts, with the swivel bracket, of which I am missing one, in front is the surface, of which I am also missing one, and then on the right are the angled mounts, which also require the swivel bracket, however I think that I can rig in the bracket, I just won't be able to adjust them. Those of course are the least favorite looking ones, however I can install with them temporarily until I find a better solution or new pieces.
