The terminal is a positive connection on -3dB. Its a good idea to do this as i find em a bit to tinny without using it.

double check that mate, as i cant remember if the -3dB terminal on the crossover is a positive connection or a negative connection. If its negative, them obviously you wiring the tweeters negative connection to the -3dB terminal instead etc etc :)


thanks mate:cool:

looks good mate :) but i would have buried the crossovers inside thee foam behind the door card :) this is what i did and makes it alot cleaner looking :thumbs:

i would also recoomend that you drop the comps -3dB on the tweeters as ive found them abit tinny otherwise.

but it looks good mate :) btw, the amp powering the sub and the comps are running off the HU? :)


thanks man:cool:

I did origanaly have the crosover under the trim, but i decided to show off the crossover instead....plus it was causing a few problems with the window handle when i had it under the trim.

The infinity amp is running the pioneer sub...the components off the h/u.

How do i go about using the -3db? I've read the instructions but dont quite understand it:boggle:.

Both indoor handles have been colour coded.I've installed some infinity component speakers, amp, and sub with box.Components where a bit of a pain to install, but i got there in the end.
The tweeter holder on both sides is gonna need another paint job though which wont take long.Overall i'm quite happy with it all:D
