Hi folks can I get a little help please. Will these speakers fit into my door cards?

fit, yeah.. but you'll still need cabling from the tweeter! :) might as well get a better set..

along those lines
 
Thanks for the advice Buckz - I take it you just tap into the exsistant cabling as it carries the full signal?

I put 2-way speakers in my door and used the tweeter wiring. I left the original tweeters out as the new speakers had them built in and i didn't want too much treble!

Big improvement.

What did you put in mate?
 
If you get chance sound deaden the doors and door card, it sounds a lot better and your door doesn't sound as tinny when you close it.

wouldn't the tweeter cable just have the high frequency feed and not the mid range one needed?

Good thinking, but the tweeter cable is a full bandwidth feed and the cross over is done at the tweeter. Cross over might be a bit of an overstatement - I think it is just one capacitor!!

SUB
 
It was a while ago but i think they were Pioneer ones. 10cm i think (don't quote me through). They were about £45 so not cheap rubbish but certainly not top end kit.

I'm still thinking of putting 6x9s in the rear cubby holes and taking a feed from the rears.
 
£15 for the pair, one of the fixings has a bit of plastic snapped but there's still plenty left for the screw to clamp down on. I've tried attaching a pic but don't know if it will show. If not I can WhatsApp you a pic. I'm in Uxbridge so not sure how local that is for you to collect from?

Ah ok so it adds the pic once you submit, good to know lol

You will need to get the connectors though as I left my OEM cables fitted (see pic)

I've also got a pair on 6.5 inch base speakers of anyone wants them?

I put 6.5" subs in the cubbie and tweeters behind the rear side panel speaker grills. Sounds so much better than just front and 2 rear mids
 
I'm in south Birmingham Neil. Can you use standard spade connections?
 
It's a two pin connector, I've just found two old tweeters and they have the same plug you will have to solder on to the cables unless you want to try redoing the plug but I think it would just get broken. You can have them with the speakersif you want them. You near to london much?
 
I'm not mate unfortunately - maybe another member may head up this way. Postage should be less than £5. I take it you mean just solder the wire into the exsisting wire?
 
Yeah leave a 2" tail off of the connector and solder your new cable on to it. Have you got PayPal? Just worried about the speaker getting damaged will see how easy it will be to wrap it well.
 
Does anyone want any door speakers I have a couple of sets that fit the Z4 door ( new never fitted ) the speakers are used in a very high end jag, also have an harman kardon tweeter upgrade that fits the Z4 with no mods. Pics if needed
