i blew my driver ft tweet and found some old ones that i had lying around, so i swapped them out and everything sounds good now but whats the deal with the huge boxes the tweets are mounted in is it just a box or is there a crossover inside. just curious if anyone out there has cut one open? :Bang :Bang :Bang :Bang :Bang

I'm interested reading about what you find. Is it for mounting, resonance or what? I thought that the cross-over was in the amp set-up under the dash for JBL.

well for all 84 people that looked i used a precision hammer and opened up the box and found that it is just an empty box that holds the tweeter

A resonance chamber? Or is it that Ford has a "valued engineered" standard inner door skin/structure that is die stamped and the box is a generic mounting point?

Its and enclosure for the tweeter, to direct the sound toward the passengers. The crossovers are built into the amp I beleive.......

LOL - yeah - but you destroyed a bad speaker - who cares :)

All I know, is that they are a real PITA to put aftermarket tweeters in that spot.
