Mk 3 Rear door speakers
« on: 22 April 2009, 13:03 »
Right I finally got around to fitting the tweeters of my set of Infinity Reference components into the rear doors! The mid/bass units have been in for about 4 years and cant remember why I wired them up the way I have!

Now I havent fitted the crossovers for the following reason!

On the mid/bass units I have put 2 wires onto each terminal cant remeber colours but will look later!
Can somebody tell me which wires I need to put the crossover inputs to?
Will probably use some new cables up to the tweeters as the door loom is all wrapped up and cant see it anyway!

hope I have explained it properly and someone can advise!

Basically I just need to know which two wires are the main feed from the HU.

been thinking and as I have used two wires on the mid/bass units, one set must be the main feed then the second set is up to the tweeter!
Which is opposite to the front as it goes to tweeter first!

So I think I'm going to answer my own question and that is to seperate the two sets of wires and then see which set works the speaker!

Hmmmm but would be nice if someone could tell my wire colours

if we`re talking about the standard loom then its easy, look at the wires going to the tweeter plug and then compare them with the two plugs you have that go too the mid, there you have it, the odd one comes from the source.
