Tweeter install advice

#1
hey guys. I bought some new Infinity tweeters to replace the factory ones. As some of you are aware, the stock ones are connected via a 4-wire harness. My problem is that my tweeters and included crossover are just 2 wires (+&-). For those of you who have done this on your own, how did you do it? I'm not sure which wires to splice or anything. Any help would be great. If not, I guess I'll send it to Best Buy and pay them to deal with it.

On the four pin connector, two on one side is positive and two on the other side is negative. One pair come from the HU and the other pair go to your woofer.

Jump the pairs together at the OEM tweeter. Then connect your new tweeter and crossover off your woofer as per their instructions.
Hope this makes sense.

I used a hole saw to remove the perforations from the trim piece. Bought Kicker silk 3/4" tweeters which have a threaded nut on the back to hold them in place. I also bought a pair of replacement trim pieces in case I ever sell the car.

How are those compared to the stock tweeters? I'm replacing mine soon as my left tweeter is starting to crackle.

I have no complaints. Much better than the stock units. I don't have a lot of power running to them right now but they are crisp and clean.
The 1" model is too big and will be larger than the trim piece on the car. The 3/4" model is a perfect fit.

I had to order an odd sized hole saw from Amazon to remove the perforations, it was about $10.

Then do a little trimming on the inside for a good fit.
