Default Trans Am Coupe Stock Tweeter Question?

Are the wires going to the rear tweeters on a stock monsoon trans am coupe filtered in anyway? I know they come right from the deck, but I need to know if they have a full range signal going to them, I am asking because I want to use those wires for a speaker lever to RCA adapter, rather than tapping into the amp input wires. Thanks.

The four tweeters in Firebird Monsoon systems all have inline high pass filters so you won't get a full range signal at the tweeters. Besides, the Monsoon amp is just as convenient to access as the right rear tweeter so why not just tap into the amp input wires. The amp pinout and wire colors are in the Monsoon FAQ sticky.

Yeah, I saw the post on all the monsoon specs, mainly I ask, because i have a CETA, and do not want to cut or modify the wiring harness in any way. I was just going to unhook the rear tweeters alltogether and use them
