If your car speaker setup doesn't come with separate crossover boxes, then your car tweeters will not play as efficient as they should. The main role of an car audio crossover is to ensure that both the car door speaker and car tweeter mounted in the A pillar play the right sounds. Some crossovers have an button that allows you to add another +3db boost to the highs, which will make your tweeters sound louder. An crossover box will allow your car tweeters to have the potential to play more louder and more clear.
Adjusting the equaliser setting on your car headunit will also increase the treble range and make your car tweeters more louder. The sliders of the eq, found in the audio settings menu towards the right will be geared towards the frequencies the car tweeters focus on playing. Adjust this until you reach your desired sound. Car tweeters will respond well to frequency bands that are in the 10 KHz to 20 KHz, turning these up will increase sound from your car tweeters. If your car headunit is stock, you may want to consider upgrading it as it will have limited sound adjustments. An aftermarket headunit from kenwood or alpine will contain an 8 band or more equaliser to get the most out of your car audio system.
Adding an amplifier to your car tweeters will make the sound louder. More power equals an louder sound generally in the car audio world. You will need to find out what the RMS rating is on your car tweeters, and you need to ensure you install a car amplifier that matches the output of the tweeters used in your car audio system. You don't want to overpower tweeters. Even another 10 rms can easily damage them, speakers and subwoofers tend to hold more power better for longer. If you're powering your car tweeters from your factory stock headunit they will be getting no more than 20 watts rms each. Aftermarket tweeters can range from 50 watts rms to 80 watts rms, so find an car amplifier that suits your setup. Ensure you tune the gain to prevent distortion and any damage that may occur. Distortion and clipping can damage tweeters and often is overlooked until one day your car tweeters stop working.
