[HELP] Changing tweeters on my 2009 e91

Hey guys!

Seems like alot of you know your way around the audio system in various models, so If anyone has info on my particullar model.. please help.
I think I have the DSP set-up, 676 Hi-Fi with the subs under the frontseats and the OEM amp in the back.
My tweeters are blown and needs replacing, but I have no idea what to buy or even If aftermarket ones work without any problems.
So here's a few questions:
Can aftermarket tweeters just plug'n'play with the BMW cable?
Do I also need to fit the crossovers that comes with the tweeters?
If this does not work and we're talking laying new cables, could someone please direct me to the cheapest OEM ones?

Yeah, pretty new to this whole audio thing.

Michael

You need texhnic wires (made from available oem parts) to conntect aftermarket tweeters

Why not just replace oem L7 tweeter? They are plug and play an i dont think very pricey

That seems like a great idea, except theres no way to get something like that here in Norway for under $300/pair. Does anyone have a link to a cheap site perhaps?

Skim through this video to get an idea of what's involved, one of the things he shows is replacing the tweeters:



It's for an e92, but it will give you a pretty good start I would think.
