in the gen 5/5.5, the dash speaker is a 3.5". is there a passive crossover on it? or is it trying to play the full range of sound? it doesnt look like a coax, so i'm guessing its NOT crossed over

The dash tweeters and door speakers are wired in parallel, using a first-order crossover. Therefore, the door speakers play full-range, and
the tweeters are filtered with a bass blocker to receive only higher frequencies.
