How to install tweeters to Head Unit?

When I learn about the tweeter installation from my friend who is an expert vehicle electrician, he told me that you should have some required things with you to complete this process.

Tools Required

I have compiled a checklist of those required items that we must have with us before move forward to the installation of tweeters:

  • First thing, we need best quality tweeters
  • The appropriate length of speaker wire
  • We need some connections, like male & female connections
  • Some nuts and bolts
  • Speaker polarity tester
  • Plastic stripes (In absence of nuts & bolts)
  • Soldering gun with soldering wire (For strong connection)

Step-by-Step Tweeters Installation Guide

Step 1

First of all, you must have a pair of best quality tweeters in your hand. I got this out for my own car from Amazon and they are lower in price around $7 or $9. I am pretty satisfied with the quality of these tweeters.

If you have built-in tweeters of cheap quality in your car, I suggest you replace them with new ones for the best quality of sound.

Step 2

Now move forward and install the tweeters in the dashboard of the car. To install the tweeters in the dashboard you must have some nuts and bolts. To avoid any future problems, make sure that the connections are enough tight. Without ensuring the proper connections the proper installation cannot be done. Tweeters will make your car speakers louder without an amplifier.

Step 3

If you don’t like any kind of installation or modifications in your car by nuts and bolts then you can also use plastic stripes for this installation. Here you learn installation through plastic strips because most people don’t like nuts and bolts in their luxury vehicles.

First of all, adjust the plastic strips then fit the tweeters. Make sure that fitting is enough tight and any bump and jolt during driving will not affect the installed tweeters to displace them.

Step 4

Most people do not want to drill a single hole or make changes in the structure of their car dashboard. So, they can also use a small mounting cup for tweeters. That will be secured for the surface and tweeters can be installed in this mounting cup by a single screw that keeps it holds in an adjusted place.

This type of installation looks decent and it is an easy and suitable method of tweeter installation.

Step 5

After that all, now it’s time to connect the wire of tweeters with the wire of the head unit by the connectors. It is better to use a soldering gun that makes the connection super strong.

Before creating this connection, make sure that the polarities of wires are accurate, else! An inaccurate connection can be a cause of a short circuit. I have just installed tweeters with Single Din Head Unit.

Apply the same procedure for another tweeter (pair) and make the connections enough tight. 

Step 6

After making the connection of tweeter and speaker wires to the head unit of the car, now check the polarity. You must have a speaker polarity tester to check it accurately.

Step 7

Keep in mind, during the connection of tweeter and speaker wires with the head unit keep the power source off.

Step 8

Now it’s all done, after mounting the tweeters and making their connection with a car head unit. Now turn your car sound system on by its power source, and play some music to check the quality of sound. I am sure; you will be experienced with the quality of sound that you are looking for.

Step 9

In the end, you just have to adjust the volume or do the advanced volume tuning according to your choice and likings. You are done now.

Features of Tweeters

When you install tweeters in the head unit they deliver clear high-quality sound that enables you to listen to classical blasted music.

You can easily hear the clear treble by installing tweeters in the car’s head unit that will make you drop in love with them.

If you install the tweeters in any other place block the frequencies or make a little-distorted frequency that when came to ears, it disturbs the crisp. But with the installation of tweeters with a head unit you can get the clear audible frequency that comes to you directly and spread in the whole car smoothly.

Hope, now you have a better understanding of how to install tweeters to head unit for the car.
