I just bought a used 1997 VOlkswagen Golf Jetta (very happy!). It has a deluxe audio package and I'd like to upgrade the head unit. The speakers will stay for now (don't worry, they will be replaced-later). Can I use all 8 speakers with a new head unit? How should I go about this? I know there are 4 "regular" speakers and 2 tweeters in the back, but what are other 2 on the dash for? They sound like tweeters to me, but seem pretty large to be so. Anyways, I guess what I really want to know is how everything is connected to the factory head unit. I haven't been able to locate a wiring diagram, so I don't even know if there are crossovers or anything in the system...I'd like to know these things beforehand, since I don't have the code for the factory unit so I want to be sure of everything before I start so I don't have to go without a stereo for a length of time. If anyone has some experience here, or suggestions, I'd really appreciate some input. Thanks!
