yes. I have alpine spr 176a components. i wired them up to the standard wires that were in the doors, couldn't work out where the crossovers were meant to go . The tweeters have blown though, they sound really distorted and crap. It hasn't even been up loud.

Mid to big speaker 
treble to tweater. 
 
Hot glue gun them to the inside of the door card if you don't want them on show. 
 
Job done.

i know how to wire the crossovers to the speakers, just need to know how to wire the headunit to the crossover, (they aren't being amped).

WTF...salon racer said how to wire it up mate   
You go, HU (speaker wires, the things sticking out the back of the headunit) to speaker into the doors, then to the + & - on the crossover. Then from crossover to the speakers   
 
And you obviously didnt wire up the speakers properly if your tweeters are now blown, in which case contact Alpine and get some replacments sent out...otherwise, whats the point in the comps   
 
edit: you now that booklet that comes with speakers....its called a manual, read it
