So I upgraded to some 2006 door cards, mainly for the "storage" but also for the tweeters. As when driving roof down, you can't hear a lot.





The door speakers were upgraded by the PO - which for now will stay put.

I need to know how to wire in the OEM tweeter from a 2006 S, into a 2001 S.

I was thinking could just wire it direct to the door speaker, but have read on a few forum posts that I should be using a filter capacitor to get rid of the low frequencies, or a crossover box.

Trouble is, I have no idea what I am looking for!

Can anyone help?

Wondering if something like this would be ideal:

The cheapest option would be to buy someone's old MY04+ speakers - lots of people have these lying around and you can probably get them for pennies/a few pounds.
Failing that, an aftermarket set of components will do the job nicely.

Do you still have the OEM stereo installed?

No I have a Pioneer DEH-80PRS.

The car did have a sub and amp when I got it, but have since removed that, leaving me with just the aftermarket door speakers.

Do the MY04+ speakers have a filter for the tweeters built in? rather than a crossover box?

Was hoping to stick with these aftermarket speakers but use the OEM tweeters?

Yes, the MY04 come as a set of the woofers and tweeters (the crossover is built into the woofer).

If you want really good sound, keep the amp at least, and stick a decent set of aftermarket components in the doors along with some sound deadening.
