Friend...i just repaired a tweeter on the 18s..if thin wire is broken at middle.and have enough lenght to conect the two ends...take a tweezer and holding firmly on wire one at a time with your thumb and forefinger,, close the tweezer on the wire and lightly pull over the wirescraping any material off....very gently and use a magnifying mirror..the original wire was connected to the face in an S pattern....dont worry about that just twist the ends carefully 2x (if you have enough lenght) or so and glue or put a small drop of silver solder with flux inside..Use a good quality solder with a low melting point...melt a drop to the iron tip and just quickly swipe it across the wires at the connection...glue it then, neatly to the face(couple pin drops)...When it cures,what i do is cover the whole lenght of wire end to end with a liguid black insulator in a bottle .or wet look speaker cone treatment and a tiny thin paintbrush making a nice straight cover to the wire that will cure and look perfect!
