Installing Components: Door Wiring

[James28]

Hi
I have looked around but am still a bit unsure how to do this!

I have a renault clio (only a 1.2!) and have got some components and an amp that I would like to install.
The one problem I am stuck on is how to get the wire from the door speaker through to the main car to connect it to the Crossover?
I can't work out how to get the wire through?

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

I mounted my crossovers in the door pocket on a mk1 and just wired them to there! Also fixed the tweeters onot the door. Simples!

 

[Paddy_g46]

the other option is to try and feed a wire back through where the other wires come into the door, through the rubber thingy in the door close.

Wherever I mount them I still need to get wire out the door to the amp.

Which means the problem I am having, finding a way of getting the wire through the door rubber connector thing.

The other wires go through a plastic connector thing using pins, so how do I get wire through that?

If I become a member does the guide show exactly how to do this?

Thanks

Wire the amp to the speaker cables at the head unit. No need to start drilling holes.

Yea that would be easier,
But the speakers need to be connected to the crossovers, then the crossovers to the amp.
The crossovers won't fit at the Headunit, so the speaker wire needs to reach wherever I put the crossovers, so how do I use the existing wiring when it doesn't go where I want it to in the car?

 

[Pinkorstink]

It does, wire the crossovers door side (either inside or outside the card). The speaker cable is still in place which can be amped at the head unit.

Ah thanks,
But I also need to attach the tweeters to the crossover, and if the crossovers are in the door that means I still have to get wire from the dash tweeters through to the crossovers in the door?

You should also find the tweeter cables inside the door panel to the main speakers.
