Best is to run components or get a crossover for the tweeter.

I was told by Crutchfield that since I am using an aftermarket head unit, I could just wire them directly to it (the head unit).... Haven't done it yet, but I want to them and install them soon!!! Keep me up to date with how you wire the tweeters....

You can tap into a speaker wire, but put a crossover on them or you will damage them. Anyway you go the overall sound will probably be crap. There is a reason co-ax & component speakers are sold as a pair, and it has a lot to do with the matching of the tweeter with the midrange.
