Hi Everyone, I am preparing to upgrade my stereo this week and wanted to ask a few questions of others who may have done the same in order to maximize my after-work time. From what I have read, the H3 and H3T are different enough that I think a new thread would help us H3T owners with our unique stereos. My Alpha has the Monsoon stereo but any non-Monsoon owners feel free to share what your experience was if you happened to upgrade the stereo. Here is what I am wondering:
1.) Where is the Monsoon amp located in the H3T? I know it is located near the sub in the regular H3, which doesn't help us H3T owners find our amps
2.) Where are the stock tweeters powered from? Directly from the Monsoon amp? Or are they wired in series or parallel with the front woofers? I'd like to mount my new tweeters in the A-pillars if that location ends up sounding better than the kick panel area. I'm actively amplifying them so using the stock wires would be a huge advantage over having to rewire everything.
3.) How much of our Monsoon stereo is the same as a Chevy Colorado's? I bet there is a lot more info on a Colorado available than our trucks, but only helpful if it is the same.
I've found this PDF from Schwartzzy for how to remove the door panels:

4.) Does anyone have a similar PDF for how to remove the factory interior A-Pillar trim?
This thread on Hummer X Forums also has some helpful information:
