    I replaced all 4 speakers with new ones in the truck connected to a 5 channel amp.I even bought the kicker tweeters in the dash. My problem is the kicker tweeters dont power on(they only work if i disconnect the RCAs to the front speakers) and I think it might have to do with my new front speakers that are two way with a tweeter built in(pic included) Everything works except the kicker tweeters. Any ways to make them work?1A987E36-C5AB-4F22-B23A-52DEC1E864D0.jpg

    Sounds like you wired it incorrectly
    The factory tweeters and the Subaru/kicker tweets have 4 wires in and then 2 of the wires from that connector feed the 6x9s in the doors.
    How did you wire the speakers from the amp @LilTexan22 ?

    I have the kicker tweeters plugged into the stock oem connector and the new 6x9 door speakers connected to brand new speaker wire that runs straight to the amp. I ran brand new speaker wire through the truck, just the kicker tweeters are hooked up to the old oem connection. Trying to figure out how to keep the kicker tweeters powered on from the stereo
