If your L-Pad is made for an 8 ohm load, then put an 8 ohm resistor across your tweeter. If the L-Pad is for 16 ohms, then put a 16 ohm resistor across the tweeter. Piezoelectric tweeters are primarily capacitive, and have fairly high impedance, so you'll need to add a shunt resistor across the tweeter to form a voltage divider for the L-Pad to work. Give that a try and see what happens.
