Coaxial with stock tweeter vs. component set
I have an 05 MDX with stock sterer....
I have a really nice pair of Focal 6.5" coaxs that I can put in the front doors, OR I can get a pair of components and put the Focals in the rear doors.....questions:
How hard is it to install the component, tweeter, crossover?
Has anyone tried both a good coax with stock tweeter vs. component set?
Thanks!

I have a decent amp that can drive either the coax's or any components I put in there.
The Focal Coax does not have a separate tweeter.
I'm trying to see how difficult it is to install components myself.... removing the door, finding a place for the crossover, removing and installing the tweeter, etc

I know the coax doesn't have a seperate tweeter, that's why I said put components in the front, installation shouldn't be that hard, unless you're fishing new wires through the doors

If so, I could use that wiring to hook up the components and cross over, and then I think I could run any speaker wire from my installed amp directly to the back of the dash and hook up there.
Does that sound right?

Personally, I always run new speaker wire. I never trust the stock junk, mainly because it is so small. I ran new wire in my CL, my buddy's F-150 and I'll be running new wire in my Celica this weekend. IMO, it's definitely worth the any/all extra hassle.

I dunno, never done it. That's why I didn't post anything with respect to that. My CL was pretty easy, once I pulled the door off. That was a pain in the ass though.
