I am trying to remove a set of tweeters and am having a hard time doing it, looks like they are just being held in there by hot glue, I tried to heat it up with the tip of another hot glue gun, I tried to use a razor and peel it away, what can I do to get these things out?

it's got a hole in the mount to run the wires? Stick a phillips in there & pop it out.

If the tweeter is defective, and warranty is not an issue...use a hammer...a big one, so that you only need one swing... [Razz] [Big Grin]

hey mike, if this is your tahoe, just leave it for me, I will take care of it, when I do the install, and add the new tweeters up there!
