So 280watts in back and 240 in front ??
the ones with the built in tweeters put in the front and the ones with out in the back
the extra tweeters in the doors makes all the difference
even the missis said what have you done to the radio it sounds much better
the sound is much richer with them that way
Lol i will swap them round :-p
I can take the door cards off just struggle getting them on lol
Mate are these the one with tweeters in speakers? 400705000116 240watt because the other ones are 280w and only has the black part in the middle
yes the ones with the tweeters in the middle put them in the front
this will give a better sound believe me.
also the wattage will only be as high as the head unit puts out
so you won't get anywhere near 240watts
Yeh i understand that im just say are the 240w speakers the ones with tweeters lol i dont know how else to explain about them lol
yes mate they're the ones
I have updated my first post to include the wiring diagrams of the factory speakers.
need some help asap. which is the pos and neg on my tweeters
I have a solid clear one and a clear with black strip.... now i didnt get manual and currently waiting to fit them now
Lewis are you on about car speaker wiring
I was but sorted it in end :-)
anyone looking for a good 3.5 inch replacement center speaker
i can recommend this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BOSS-AUDIO-BRS...2a14876b57
much better speaker than the standard one
it lets alot more bass out and overall the sound is much better
you can see this specker move with the sound unlike the standard one
i have been using this for a week now and i think it is very good for the price
perfect fit just needs to be wire in.
and here is clip of it working.
you can see how well it moves and kicks the bass out
just lift the grill off your speaker and see how bad the standard one is

Sounds good, are you getting them or do you want me too
Mate when you can could you tell me which wires you wired where please for tweeters x

just make a note of the colors for left and right
cut the connector off add two spade clip connectors one small and one normal
then connect back up the same way they were originally
the tweeters you had did need trimming to fit the holder for the tweeters
and hot melt glue to hold them together
but check the fit and make sure the covers fit back on before you glue it all together
All ordered Lewis, it says delivery is between jan 2nd and jan 6th so i'll let you know when they arrive, thanks Tucpal for the recommendation
let us all know how you two get on
but i am sure you will be pleased
will do as soon as they arrive
Good news Lewis, the speakers arrived. I installed mine and I like it. Its not a massive sound difference but you can now hear voices from the top which is quite cool. When I took the grill off to my amazement there was already a speaker in there but it wasn't working. It was a Vauxhall speaker so the car must have come with it
May be other SE,s have them so might be worth somebody else taking off their grill to find out
Awesome mate

[MENTION=2]tucpal[/MENTION] with the connectors on the speakers, which legs is neg and pos?
Also I been looking on ebay for some speaker connectors with wire already connected but can find any :(
mate that centre speaker the same make of 6.5" thinking of getting
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Blaupunkt-GTx-...4ad6011c58
are you on about the door speakers lewis if so why not
but i thought you had already replaced them for the alpine ones ?
so no real need and it was rusty that found the connectors for the door speakers
I think it's all down to the user TBH. I've since fitted an amp for all the door speakers as the headuint kept cutting out when I was on a motorway with the music up loud.
i would keep the all the same type if you can
what ever you go for
This flat sub looks very convenient. Since CD500 lacks of rca out you can add an amp using hi/low adaptors, right? Sub will be connected to rear speakers wiring?
There are some adaptor cables you can buy, will see if I can find a link for you.
I think most people take the feed off the rear speakers.

i asked and he never did it for me ether
Haha think I took some pics lol, really simple just need to run a positive from the battery to the boot.
then the RCA leads to the boot then run new wires to each speaker.
Oh also need a remote wire from HU to AMP, not sure where you will get that from on the factory HU mind.
maybe use car lighter's line...
What gauge wire is used to connect speaker to the cut off connector for the centre speaker?
