I need to find a replacement Rockford Fosgate tweeter from many moons ago...
FNQ 1401 or
FNQ 2401
If you have any or know of any, please let me know. I have one that failed on me, and I don't wish to replace the whole component set unless I have no choice.

This one may have the tweets your looking for but comes with mid bass drivers as well. http://www.ebay.com/itm/A-pair-of-used- ... ch&vxp=mtrI could not find any sets with tweeters on eBay. The set you have the link too actually have MB Quart tweeters in the photos, not Rockford ones. I have a feeling these are going to be too rare to find.

I don't have a Facebook account.
I dug around last night looking for something unrelated and I came across 2 FNQ prototype tweeters I had. I am going to try them out and see if they will work.

Yes this may be a hard find.. hopefully the protos work out or you may have to mix it up with something that has similar characteristics. I have some old MTX Thunder Pros that are a nice soft dome in the garage if you need them. Good luck Eric.

I have to stick with originals as they mount co-axially with the midrange on the speaker grill.
Normally I would be OK with changing them to something more modern.

That is close to correct, but is the bottom of the line P series not the top of the line Q series.
Mylar domes in the P vs aluminum in the Q. Also, the Q tweeters handle more power I believe, but I don't know how, as they have the same motor structure in all three lines, P, X, and Q.
