The stock one is attached on the tweeter atleast on the non amplified stock sytems. I just popped mine off today to see how I'm gonna install mine as well. A small flathead, or jewelers screwdriver will work. Pops out very easy. Just came in the mail, but don't know if I have time to install till the weekend. You will need to run an aftermarket crossover with the non amplified system.
so with these i just pop off the factory grill, remove the factory tweeters, run wire up from my already installed 3rd party crossover and make small adjustments to the size of the hole till the new tweeters fit snuggly into the factory tombstone hole?

Yeah! Finally installed these polks. A Great improvement. Just had to dremel away some of the tombstone and snap in. May add a little glue later if needed. Seem pretty tight.

I just installed the Polk DB components. Hook the woofer up directly to stock wiring bypassing JL crossover. Infinity amp allready crosses over mid range. Use the JL crossover for the tweeter only. I ran wire extensions from stock tweeter wiring into polk crossover then speaker outs to tweeters. Sounds great.

So, if I want to replace the stock tweeters and keep my stock setup, do I need to add the crossover? And are there certain specs I need to look for when ordering these? I just replaced all the other speakers with those 2010 Challenger Boston Acoustics and they sound great. I'm thinking with this tweeter replacement it should sound better...
Thanks for any help!
