I cant tell you, but those also have the inline crossover. Mine dont have tweeters, but I still get plenty of treble without them. Might be too bright...

Pioneer def too bright, going with the kicker.

you think the corssover should be installed or just leave without since the system is already tuned?

100% use the crossovers - the system is mis-tuned until you do; I think they are the real benefit. My box had all the connectors included so you only need to snap them together (+ side). Its a pain getting socket that close to windshield, and you have to pull up dash, but its all clips. I have a sheet to refer to - let me post it...

Here it is. Pay close attention to the those wire colors. When your done kick up your base and sub settings. Its no full system, but its pretty darn nice for 65 bones and an hour of work...

So I found a pretty decent solution. Try replacing your dash tweeters with the kicker ksc270s, and dont do anything else. They run about $65. Report back what you find...

Brilliant idea! I’ve been considering and researching (and dreading) adding a big hearty system almost in almost like I used to run in the early-mid 90s but this ‘hack’ might satisfy in the meantime; sounds like it tackles my biggest gripes with the Blows system. Thanks for posting.. def something to think about here

Swapped these in yesterday and huge improvement. Not sure why really as they seem very similar to the Bose speakers and the Bose were not your typical crappy OEM speakers but after installing these kickers there is a noticable improvement.

On sale right now as well.

Damn thats a great deal! Easily worth full price. I noticed they were a little heavier, but that alone doesn't explain the improvement. Best sub $100 mod by far...

Install complete on the Kickers @K2 Kaiju recommended. The instructions were great too! Wow what a better sounding system! Thanks for suggesting this.

LOL, better late than never! It actually gets better as they break in. After a few months, I much prefer this sound quality to the 4 speaker plus 12" woofer I wrote about earlier in this post and I dont have a big box & amp taking up all that space...
