A bump to this thread to ask a simple question;
edit: found answers to my questions, documenting here.
When installing front door component speakers, is it difficult to access the speaker wires in the dash so you could tie into them to feed the crossovers in the front doors? Really don't want to be taking the dash off if i can help it.
Doesn't seem very difficult at all.
Also, from your reading and experience did you leave the dash speakers connected or just disconnect them and rely on the upgraded performance from the new component speakers in the door?
I haven't dug into the car enough under the dash to know how much access I have in there. Also I assume the dash side speakers are going to be rather useless once the door speakers are upgraded.
Dash speakers seem to be the small factory speakers/tweeters so these typically get replaced with actual tweeters if you have a component system up front. Not sure what the best decision would be if you didn't get components up front... i'd likely disconnect the factory tweeters in that situation?
