Exclamation Installing Passive Crossover Help!

Hello Forum! (bigaudio )

I want to install the passive crossovers that came with my Polk Audio db1001 tweeters. My tweeters are connected in parallel to my 6.5s. Now every website I have been to told me to wire the capacitor to the positive wire of the tweeter. Problem is my capacitors have both + and - wires on each side. In short, this is how many sites showed the install:


My this is how my polk audio passive crossovers look:


So do I just wire this to the + and - parts of the tweeter or do I have to do something special because it's wired in parallel. The instructions are utter crap and explain nothing. Here is how I visualize running it:


Also please don't recommend active crossovers or anything like that. I am on a tight budget! Thanks for any input.
