no, front channel, lets say left, goes to the left crossover (the block in the middle of the photo). Then from the crossover, take the woofer out to the woofer, then the tweeter out to the tweeter. Never wire up a tweeter to a standard speaker connection, coz it will go bang very quickly :lol:
And the usualy place to put the crossover in the door, is where the foam is, which is where the little arm rest bit that sticks out. If you take the door card off, you will see it :) Also you could screw the crossover to the outside of the doorcard if you wish to have it on show, but obviously your wiring need to be top notch etc :)

yep, amp goes to the crossover, the you will have a number of outs (2 in most cases, but can be 3 if you have more expensive crossovers). But no, its better to have to crossover in the door, that way your only running one cable down to each door instead of 2 or 3 etc :thumbs:

Your link doesnt seem to work.

anyway, yeah they are good for the money! They sound decent off of the headunit if you had no plans of amping them. TBH any speaker will sound better than oe.

I would recommend these though:

in the same price range and are better quality IMO.
