Default Replacing Tweeters - Help please!!!

I have just noticed that my one of my old Sony speakers's tweeter has
stopped working. I have isolated the fact that it is the tweeter itself and
not the internal wiring. I have looked online and see that I can buy
replacement tweeters, but since the speakers are so old there are no
details on them, therfore I was wondering if anyone could help me on
deciding the wattage of the tweeters that I should buy.

The speaker is "100w nominal & 200watt music" (from the back of the speaker)
does the tweeter need to be 100w or 200w or can it be lower, IE 50w? I have
seen 50w tweeters at reasonable prices.

I thought that the wattage sent to the speaker might be split over the
woofer, mid and tweeter, and wondered if there was a way of knowing the
ratio and therefore working out how big the tweeter should be, in terms of
wattage. Or am I going about this all wrong?!!!

Regards & Thanks in advance.

Tim.
