Replacing OEM Door Speakers & Tweeters
Hey guys,
I bought some Kicker 6.5's for my doors that will drop in fine with new mounting holes drilled, but I had one question. I've got the speaker grills off for the tweeters, but the fosgates I bought say I need to splice into the wiring for the tweeters. It has been YEARS since I worked on car audio. When I pull these tweeters off and undo the wires connected to it, am I just looking to splice directly into those after cutting the connectors? I couldnt find this question with the appropriate answer using the search function, so I am sorry if this has been asked multiple times. Thanks! |

that depends.. did your fosgate tweeters come with crossovers? are they inline, or mounted to the tweeter.

Yup yup.. If the speaker set came with a crossover, you will run you amp -/+ into the corssover then into the respective driver/tweeter. If the set did not come with a crossover, I would tie them directly into the 6.5'' driver terminals and be done with it. However, most decent speakers come with a crossover or bass blocker or something to sire to the tweeters.
