They are odd because the original ones are mounted on a big black frame, whereas the actually tweeter itself it tiny. In my case when I put components in I took the whole thing out and wedged my crossovers in, then the new tweeter on top of it, and because it's a tight fit it stays still inside.

hmm cos ive got tweeters in tehre atm, but ive got sme 4" infinity mid range speakers + tweeters and crossovers to go on, but they dont fit in front doors or rear speakers. Im gonna buy a sub + amp and then im gonna rewire the whole audio system and sort it out nicely  :smiley:
cheers shades  :cool:

No problem chap, your crossovers and tweeters should fit in the dash speaker grills, just, if you're lucky :P
