cross over help needed !
I have no clue! LOL.
Can I use a set of tweeters (Infinity 1011t) with any cross over or does it have to be made for these exact speakers?
I want to add a set of tweeters to the windshield posts in my 87 coupe.
This set of tweeters has no crossovers with them, so what do I do?
Also, I have 2 way infinity reference speakers in the doors, so how do I wire these tweeters in?
I am powering the door speakers thru an amp fed by the pre amp output of the headunit.
I need HELP!
thanks.

I did a quick search and came up with this:
If you want to hear more realistic sound in your car, consider adding a pair of Infinity Reference 1011t tweeters. These 1" silk domes will add sparkle and brightness to your music, and improve your stereo image — without tiring your ears.
Crossovers are included to prevent lower frequencies from reaching the tweeters and compromising sound quality. Infinity's "I-Mount" system makes it easy to install your new tweeters, while the Starfish™ bracket simplifies mounting in factory tweeter locations.
Details:
» 1" silk dome tweeters
» flush- and surface-mount hardware included
» Starfish™ bracket for mounting in factory tweeter locations
» 2,500 Hz passive in-line crossovers
» power handling: 2-50 watts RMS (150 watts peak power)
» frequency response: 2,500-21,000 Hz
» sensitivity: 91 dB
» flush-mount depth: 15/16"
» warranty: 1 year
I hope this helps

if they are at a salvage store than most likely they were removed from a car and the crossovers were left.
Yes, you DO need to use a crossover or you will blow the tweeter.
based on the specs of the 1011t tweeter as mentioned in an above post you would be best using a passive 12db crossover with a crossover point at 2,500. You should be able to find a number of suitable crossovers at any good car audio shop.
Typically the price of a crossover will depend on the quality of the componets inside it and could run as low as $25 to as much as $200.
For something simple but effective you can do a google search on passice 12db crossover networks and build one yourself. The simpliest design is simply a capacitor and a coil that you could find at radio shack or an electronics supply house for less than $10!
If you can solder you can build a crossover network.
