Tell him you need some crossovers. He can sell you some inline ones. These tweeters are retarded.

I miss-read. This guy can sell you just crossovers.

I have a set of Polk tweeters that I flush mounted in my front door panels above the factory speaker location. The Polks have an inline filter so you don't need a crossover, I just tapped into the speaker wire that feeds the 6.5s I have in the door. The sound is amazing with great staging.

Sorry, I don't get to see the fancy newer models too much. But on my '91 Limited (with premium sound pkg.) that's where they are located. I guess I would check out the 2001's with the premium sound pkg. To see where they put them. If not here's a site with Mopar - Jeep OEM parts catalogs. (In PDF format) Down load a copy, for future ref. And look through to see where they put them. http://www.xjjeeps.com/tech_referenc...section=2&ID=0
