    Default Splits wiring

    hey guys,

    i have read through this forum and couldn't find the answer im looking for so i'll ask the question.

    How do i wire the front splits in a VT? What is the exact path I should run the new wires?
    Also where is the best place to mount the crossovers?

    cheers

    Just run the speaker wires from the headunit to the 'input' terminal on the crossover, then you just run the tweeter wiring from crossover to tweeter and the same for the woofer. Just make sure you get your positives and negatives right at each end.

    Run the wiring from the headunit up behind the pedal box and past steering column to wherever you choose to mount the crossover, passenger side just do the same but run it up behind the glovebox area.

    As for positioning of crossovers, you can place them in the kick panels on both driver and passenger side of the car. Alternatively, the plastic covers underneath the steering column and glovebox make for good mounting points and are easily accessible should anything go wrong or you need to access the crossover.
