Default Inline Capacitor on Alpine speakers?

I snapped off the line into the capacitor on the tweeter on one of my Alpine speakers. Is there any way I could just put a capacitor inline to the tweeter and skip the one that's mounted onto the speaker? What capacitor would I need and where can I get it from? Thanks for any help!

You can do that. I would remove the cap that is on the tweet and start with a new one. You will have to either read the cap that is on there and match it up, call Alpine for a replacement, or remove and replace the caps on both tweeters. Your local car audio shop should have caps in stock or Radio Shack.
