I used industrial stength double sided mounting tape and mounted it inside the door up against the interior side. This way its out of the way, easy to get to, and wont get wet..

You didn't think about drilling it in and securing it to the door...i take it you haven't had a problem of it falling off???

I ran new wires into my door, and used zip-ties to zip tie the crossover up under the dash area. Easy access, won't get wet, and dosen't rattle itself everytime I shut the door.

putting the passive x overs in the door is a bad idea put them in the kick panel. I fyou have your speakers there put them high in the dash or under the console.

Thanks for all the help, I am gonna try and mount the crossovers in the car, if I can't, I think I'll just mount them in the door with factory holes.

If you have an excess of speaker wire, you can mount the x-overs in this location.....



Looks pretty sweet and I'm planning on making a trim piece for it to cover up the wiring.

I've had zero problems with the xovers in the doors. It's less wire to have to run into the door, too.
