Installing Tweeters: Best place to tap into wires
Hello all. I recently purchased what I believe will be the last piece of my car stereo, tweeters to go in the empty spots where tweeters WOULD go if I had a higher trim level.
My car is a 2006 4dr LX
I was wondering where would be the best place to tap into the wires.
I know I could tap into the cd player itself, but that would require me to run the wire through the dash, not to mention pull my cd player back out again.
I know the wires obviously have to run to the speakers in the door, is there any place along the route that is easily accessible and closer to the tweeter spots than the cd player itself?
Thanks for any help!
In case anyone is interested here is what I have in my car:
Door speakers:
----Kenwood KFC-1662S
----6.5inch
----180 watt max, 35 RMS
Rear Deck:
----Kenwood KFC6994PS
----6x9s
----500 watt max, 120 RMS
Subwoofers:
----2 Kenwood KFC-W3013PS
----12inch
----1200 watt max, 400 RMS
Woofer amp:
----Kenwood KAC-9105D
----1800 watt max, 900 RMS
CD player:
----Kenwood KDC155U
----50 watt max, 22 RMS
And soon to be tweeters:
----Kenwood KFC-ST01
----160 watt max, 40 RMS
(all wattages are for each speaker)
I'll post a video of my whole system playing once I get the tweeters installed.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

where would be the best place to tap into the wires.
The only other connectors that have front speaker wiring on a US 4door LX are the harness plugs at each front door jamb.
