Default Really need some help from the audio gods

Ok so lets begin. I have a '10 JKU non infinity. Stock head unit. I installed DB651s in the soundbar and trying to figure out the wiring into the crossover for the dash DB6501s components. Someone please chime in, I have my dash pulled apart and ready to install.

I am replacing all the speakers and tweeters. I have already mounted the Polk tweets on the factory pods and speakers in the factory boxes, just need to wire my system to the crossovers.

Thank You in advance!

Ok..assuming you are using the crossover that came with the system you have three places you can hook up wires, Input, Woofer, and Tweeter. Woofer and Tweeter are self explainitory, you run speaker wire from the crossover to each of those components.

The input wire is the wire either from your amp I.E (left and right) or the wire from your headunit. So, for example if you want to put a cross over on your tweeters, put the crossover after the wires running from your front dash speaker to the tweeter. The input on the crossover will come from the wire off the front speaker then run the wire from the crossover labled tweeter..to your tweeter...clear as mud?
