[QUOTE="mrnobudy, post: 8742594, member: 682813"] Hello! Yes, I am a total newbie to all this. I am putting in a new set of speakers in my wifes '19 Ford Ecosport. I am putting in JL C2 650 component speakers. I do not have an amp. I did the basic installation fine, but I wasn't sure on the crossover wiring. As of now, I don't have them in, but after the sound being, well, not good, I think that is where I screwed up. Rear and center dash speaker are fine, its the front door/column tweets that are puzzling me. These pics are from the passenger side. The purple(+)/orange(-) are spliced directly to the tweeter, and they also come out the door harness where the bigger speakers are. So, are those wires (purple/orange) the power wires for the speakers/tweeters? -Would those need to be capped off in the door column and the corresponding wire in the door panel/harness need to be clipped/stripped and into the 'In +/-' on the crossover? - and then run wire from the tweeter through the chassis to the door panel/crossover? -The harness would be completely discarded and then the +/- for the door speaker into the crossover? I have attached some pictures to hopefully help. Thanks for any input. [/QUOTE]
