Bose Tweeter Wiring?

[sierra248]

How does the speaker wire run from the Bose AMP to the front door speakers? I known there run in Series or Parallel but do the wires go to front speakers and then offshoot to the tweeter or are the tweeters wired in thru a separate line?

Thee Reason I ask is, if I use the factory wiring (I know u audiophiles, shhh) to the fronts for components can i use the factory tweeter wiring also with maybe just adding a little length for the crossovers which I'll mount in door.

Thanks for any help guys, cant wait to get rid of this Bose and I'm trying to do it fairly cheap and as EZ as possible(Don't want to run wiring into that mess of connector in door)..LOL

The Bose tweeter has a capacitor (crossover) mounted directly to it. The wires split off inside the door. In other words, there is only one set of speaker wires going to each door. If you insist on putting the crossovers in the door (not recommended), be sure to protect them from water running down inside the door. Tape a piece of plastic so it is sealed on the top and sides, but is open on the bottom for ventilation, sort of like a raincoat for the crossover.

Are they split off of the Front Speakers in Series or Parallel at the speaker or somewhere in a harness in the door. What I'm wondering is at the fron 6x8 speaker are there only 2 wires running to the speaker or is there 2 wires running to the speaker and 2 coming off runnikng to tweeter?

The tweeter is in parallel with the front speaker, split inside the door.

So just disconnecting the tweets will not kill the front 6x8's if there in parallel right? I'll just put caps on ends of wires.

I don't know why Ford & Mazda keep doing 6x8....6x9 and 6.5" are the more common sizes.
