Spent a few hours today installing some 6x9s into the parcel shelf of my citroen, and now I'm trying to install the tweeters, how can I wire them in? I have in-line crossovers that came with the tweeters, am I ok to tap into the speaker wires for the door speakers for them? And does the crossoer only need to be wired to the tweeter, or do both the door speaker and tweeter need to go through the crossover? I hope this makes sense and someone can tell me how I should do this, thanks in advance.

The crossover that can with your tweeters should only be used for you tweeters.

What is powering the front door speakers, do you have an Amp or are they running off the headunit?

Thanks, everything's running off the headunit at the moment, it's got a rating of 55w x4 but everything will be ran through a 4 channel amp eventually

So are the door speakers coaxials/full range ?
