Replacing the tweeter is quite easy. You don't even need a screw driver to do it. The end of the wave guide that sticks out of the tweeter housing unscrews and the tweeter comes loose. All you have to do is pull it out a little ways, disconnect the wires and that's it. You just need to order a new tweeter from B&W.

Metal domes can't be repaired. They can only be replaced.
Sometimes the company will have a replacement dome assembly, other times the entire tweeter must be replaced.
Contact your dealer..

I had a dented tweeter on a Sig 800. The back of the magnet is actually open. Put a Q-tip through the back and push it out. It will not be perfect, but will be almost un-noticable behind the screen. I ordered a new one and keep this as a backup.
If you have the N805 I think the drop in assembly is $135 new from B&W and the Signature is $155. It includes the whole magnet and tweeter and is very easy to install with no tools required. The new one will also come with a box that has foam cutouts so that storing your spare is no problem.- Bottom

But, my 803D's retailed for $8,000 a pair before the price increase, so when did the 802D's retail for $7,000 a pair?- Bottom

A pair of 802D's sells for 12,000-14,000 Euros and you see used for 9-11,000 euros.
So a pairfor 5400 Euros is a steal. This is 802D's in practically new condition in Europe.
If you bought yours in the USA and live in Europe you still had to have shipping charges and VAT taxes to pay on top.
This is cheap, so cheap its suspicious.
Remember shipping alone to Europe cost $1500, not to mention taxes- Bottom

I don't know where you live, but it is not possible you paid $5400 for a pair of 802D's new. Dealer cost is 30% of retail. So best case scenario is when they were (a while back) $6000 each still makes the cost of the dealer to buy a pair is $8000. So he would have to sell at a loss to his cost, which I have never met a dealer to take such a loss unless you were holding a gun to his head.
Or: you did and you should give us all his phone number so we can all buy at those prices. I am looking for a pair of 800D's. At the prices you pay I should have a pair for something like $8000 new for 800D's. I will be very happy to work with your guy- Bottom
