I went to change mine but I noticed the four pins and the tweeter I was putting in had two like yours... How did you go about this? Did you just cross the two wires? I was unsure about that....

matt the 4 pin plug is a feed from the radio and a feed down to the woofer in the door. i dont remember which is which at this point. the factory tweeters get the signal first and if you noticed there a little cap to filter out the lows going to it.

if you are just changing the stock tweeters out with new ones and not swapping the woofer in the door you are going to have to do a small crossover on the tweeter.

use this website to figure out what cap you will need http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/crosscalc.asp#ccc

you should be able to tie it all together at that point then i dont see why it would be a problem

from deck wires run to tweeter, from tweeter(samn color wires) wires run to speakerwhat i did is cut off connector than match colors and solder those and tweeter wires in. i tested + and - on each tweeter find what sounds good to u and thats preaty much it
