currently got infinity 17cm comps in front with a tweeter in place of the original with a cross over.

however they're going, but want to keep the tweeter where it is, although don't want the large crossover units there as they'll only be running off the headunit and standard wiring.

what size resistor type thingy do i need? would use original resistor of original tweeter but lost them (most likely binned them lol).

has anyone got any spare?

sorry i cant make head or tail of your post.

but its a capacitor that filters out the low frequencys for the tweeter.

what exactly are you trying to do?

you can get compact xovers

its not a resistor but a capacitor across/inline with the tweet.The uf rating of the cap depends where you want the freq cut (high pass). it also depends on the wattage of the tweet
