Door tweeter wiring?

[JimVee]

Hi all,

I’m looking to change my front and rear speakers out as the originals are knackered and having researched on this forum have JBL’s on the way. Only problem is the original door speaker has 4 wires coming out.

I believe the green wire and the grey/black wire are from the tweeter, my question is can I just connect them to the main door JBL speaker (standard 2 connector wiring)? ie green to brown/white and grey/black to white?

TIA

Jim

those original nokia speakers, a relic of the past

door is easy enough to strip down and follow the wires

Thanks, when the new speakers arrive. I’ll strip the door cards off and check the rest of the wiring But assuming I can just wire the tweeter and main speaker together.

Yes, you can. The original Nokia tweeters have their own crossover built in (a simple but effective capacitor system) so you can connect them directly to the main speakers. Did this recently using Musway MQ62 6.5" co-axial speakers effectively ending up with dual tweeters. Sounds great.
