LOL asian markets have it?

I remember the salesman thought it had tweeters in there too- in all fairness I didn't care that much and the car had *just* launched so I will let it slide that he didn't know.

Are there 2 tweeter positions?? I can only see one... I do have hondas interior trim set installed... would that cover one of them? The one I can see is above the passengers airbag panel thingy-majiggy.


I think if they did cover up the tweeter slot I'd complain... maybe i'm just to silly and it's right infront of me.

I got the bass works package.. and as much as I love it... and that it sounds pretty good... i'm finding myself wanting something a bit better... so thinking i might replace the two front speakers and perhaps have tweeters installed.

I'd prefer not to lose boot space to subs tho..

Not sure TBH but if you can see one, the other one will be on the exact same position on the other side (i.e. directly under the glass dash ... where the glass meets plastic?)

Mine are slightly underpowered by a cheap Lightning Audio amp i used to drive my old 10inch sub with in my old car, when i get around to replacing the fronts ill get a proper 4 channel amp

I just called honda and they said our OEM HU brand is alpine and speakers are pioneer.

Can any one confirm this?

ED, EG, EK, as far as i know with Alpine.
but FD is Thai made, so .....

Yes, they do have it, last year when I went back to my country in Malaysia and got a quote, the price is RM16 ~ AUS6 for 1 tweeter, harnesses sold separately.

yep i called honda ages ago and said that the speakers are pioneer but not sure about the HU being alpine...

There are actually 6 speakers that can be changed in the FD series civics.

Tweeters at the front (near windscreen). Front and rear speakers are both 6" 2 ways.

I went with 4 way 6" speakers front and back and left the stock tweeters, no amp or sub and the sound is really good.
