Front dashboard Tweaters

[danthorpe2002]

In my clio there are 2 tweaters in the front left and right side of the dash, I'm looking to remove these but can't find out how to get access without removing the whole dashboard, any ideas anyone?

If worst ocmes to worst how do i remove the dashboard?

Thanks

Yeh but I was asking if there was a way to remove them without taking the dahboard apart.

What clio do you have? if it is a mk2ph2 then you can twist off the grilles, but it's dash off on the other models as far as i know

mk2 ph2/ph3 you can turn the tweeter cover anti-clockwise to remove it, not sure if you can remove them or not though this way

Yes on the Mk2 Ph2 u can twist the grills off, but to take the tweeters off its a dash off jobby. No way can ur hand fit in there to take off the connections etc...

taking the dash off is not as hard as you would think!!

takes about 5 mins!

I think it'll take longer than 5 mins right?! lol

But isn't as hard as it looks. (well it shouldn't be!)

Helps having small hands!

Right took aout 10 mins to take dash off, 2 mins to fiddle about then 10 mins to put it back on, few fiddly screws but its pretty simple, thanks!

Hi,is it possible to replace these tweeters with some aftermarket ones?

 

[planetx]

OH YES..............get them standard crappy things out and feed them to the dog

 

[Hazza]

I heard that by directly replacing the tweeters with uprated ones, the uprated ones are likely to blow? Is this correct?

 

[MT AUDIO]

yes because you need to use crossovers,the standard tweeters have a built in filter to stop them popping

 

[planetx]

you are 90% there to changing the whole setup...might aswell do the door speakers while your at it.

 

[Hutchie]

just disconnected mine its a 5 min job, hardest bit was getting grip on covers to twist them

Those are the only ones that are a direct replacement.

 

[Westicles]

is that troo ^ if u put in aftermarket ones as direct replacements they will blow?

 

[Westicles]

oh and also, is the tweeter connections the same as the door speaker ones ( i mean the plug)

Ive got the Pioneer ones made for Renaults as I wanted an easy swap. They sound pretty good 100x better than stock. I could do with a sub though to make up for lower frequencys as they are not very bassy.
