Default Rear door speakers

They look like tweeters, Im not sure if they are or not. My question is, on the wriring going to the factory head unit, which wires feed these rear door speakers?

I have a pioneer cd player that I put i when I got the car, so the wiring is all spliced and the two 6" speakers in the back were rewired as well.

I'd like to get these door ones working though.


I spose if I cant figure it out I'll just run new wire to them, but thats my last resort.

Not sure on the wiring though. I believe the Bentley has the diagram with the colors. Of course those aren't very user friendly. If you don't have Bentley LMK and I'll look for you.

Default Re: Rear door speakers

The factory radio had an amp mounted under the rear shelf which drives the rear deck speakers as well as these tweeters in the door. Seeing you have an after market radio, this amp has been bypassed. Most likely new speaker wire was run to the rear deck speakers and the installer didn't bother to hook up the tweeters in the doors.

Default The Installer was me.......

I ran the new wire to the rear speakers when I put the cd player in a couple years ago, but I was unaware the rear doors were wired to that amp as well. Looks like I'll be running new wire to the doors.

Thanks.
