    Default Where to put crossover for tweeters in car???

    Hi just installing a new set of speakers in my VT and wondering where u guys put the crossovers for the tweeters... and also how to get to that area. Also trying to find out if under dash for tweeters is a good spot as that is where the factory ones are put or whether on the inner door opposite mirror? Let me know your thoughts?

    put it on the inside of the dash opposite the mirror
    like you get the vent on the side of the dash which matches to the door for the face vents
    you can take the cover for that off and mount them there

    saw a video of it on street commodores live... cant remember which one tho

    mounting them on the doors means u'll have 2 run wiring through the door (extra work) its much easier keepin them in the factory spot uve got brackets already there 2 use also. 4 the crossovers i found it easier 2 mount them in the boot closer 2 the amp means u only have 2 run 1 wire down the sides of the car 4 the tweeters and they can b hidden away or made 2 b shown off either way.
