That would be ideal of course, but because these are component
speakers, it complicates things a bit. Instead of speaker wire going
directly from the deck to the speakers, the wire will first go to the
component crossover, where it is then split and separate wires go to
the tweeter in the dash and the 6" woofer in the door.
