I'm glad to give it then! Same issue, the tweeter wiring was not plugged into the midrange where it should have been. It was just dangling in there.

Boy I have to blame the Collision shop who replaced my rear door (moved all components & trim over to new door) and repaired the front one a couple months ago. I have to assume they just didn't seat the wire connector into the connection securely, and they just fell out with vibration. It's not hard to insert them and they do click in and are a pain to get back out. But I don't have another explanation, as I am quite certain I listened at least to the rear door speakers when I picked it up after repair.
Oh well, nice to have this out of the way, and Gee my stereo sounds great again!

** One NOTE ** - Be careful not to over-tighten the trim screws when re-installing the panel. It feels like they seat into a plastic receiver/nut in the body, and I slightly stripped one of mine when re-installing. It wasn't one for the door handle grab rail, so I just left it. If it were for the rail which you pull on to shut the door, I would have looked for a slightly larger diameter screw and used that instead.
