if you change your tweeters, you may as well replace the standard speakers too.

buy a decent set of 6.5" component speakers. and they will come with a seperate tweeter and crossover unit.

i have fitted 1" tweeters in my car, was a bit of a squeeze and did involve some manipulation of metal but i got them to fit nice and snug

i have already changed my front door speakers ages ago,but im goin to change them again early next year and amp them :d have u got any pictures of how you minipulated then metal :d

nope no pics mate.... dont worry if you get 0.75" they will fit right in.. its only cos i am using 1" tweeters i had to do a bit of metal bending on the door

Hi, I my tweeter in the passenger door (Mk1 Leon) is giving trouble - the sound comes and goes so I'd say it's just a matter of connections. Would you know where is the best place to check first? Is do wires come out of the back of the CD player that go to the tweeters? If so it could be simply a bad connection, or would I have to remove car door card and check the connections to the speaker itself which is most likey a soldered connection?

Any help/advise appreciated.

Thanks.
