ok fellas, ive been looking for a spot on my door to run the wire through and find nothing, i was just told to use the factory wires to connect to the back of my speaker and then cut my front left and right positive and negative wires from the RADIOS harness and then run that to the crossover....... Any suggestions on this???

run the wire thru the factory molex

are u running them off h/u power or an amp??

tweets in a pillar or door panel

A-pillars work well for mounting tweeters, or somewhere in the door. Often times cars have a plastic piece near where the side-view mirror is that works well also.

running them through amp, guess i shoulda said that..... and factory molex has a big *** Plastic clip in it covering the whole hole

u can put the xovers anywhere u want if u put em by the amp u gotta run twice as much wire, up front gotta be careful they dont get smashed or wet.

drill out the factory molex in the blank spots to run wire thru em

i mounted my tweet on the a pillar with the cup mounts used 1 small screw so there ia a small hole in each piece but i have a new car

depends on if u wanna cut the car or not, if u do decide to use a hole saw with the diameter pg gives ya for the mount diameter its pretty easy the bit fits in a drill and makes perfect circles

its really not too hard use the ones that are no wires adjacent there should be a few empty ones

cool but would what i asked in the original post work, ya know just in case

yeah that would work, but i never recommend cutting the factory wiring, if u do it that way make sure the wires are disconnected behind the radio and cap em

then use t-taps to tap in to the factory wires in the kick panels on each side

i wouldnt be cuttin the factorys wires i would be cuttin the radio harness wires

ah why not as long as u got tight connections and u crimp off the stereo speaker outputs fuk it, u wont get an audible difference out of it and it will be easy but i recommend the right way lil molex drillling is easy stuff as long as u dont use a bit bigger than the hole:laugh:
