[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8865175, member: 689267"] All we know at this point is that they are filtered, we still don't know how. BUT... Since we now know they are filtered leads, I'll see what the best budget options you have. Forget about trying to mount the tweeter where the JBL's were mounted with a bracket, it's never going to be the same and and would be much easier to drill a simple drill hole, run a wire from the tweeter lead up through the package tray and mount a surface mountable tweeter (in a component set) next to the replacement 6x9s on the rear package tray, very easy and something that you most certainly can do. Since you don't want to test it from the amp, to be safe, we must use 2 ohm speakers front a back. If the filters (crossovers, frequency dividers, caps or coils, all the same) happen to be inline and not electronic, the factory speaker being 2 ohms and designed for those filters, 2 ohms speakers are a must. I'm checking for either 6.5" rounds (with the use of a 6x9 to 6.5 adapter) or 6x9s, all rated at 2 ohms, nothing else. [/QUOTE]
