Installation Considerations before attempting Install:

1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install these speakers.

2. For safety, disconnect the negative battery terminal from the battery prior to beginning the installation.

3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting speakers in place

4. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.

5. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines,

vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle. If installing in a boat, take care not to

cut or drill through the main hull.

6. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle or hull area provides the

best protection.

7. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any wres

running through metal, especially the firewall.

Mounting

1. Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large enough for the speaker to

mount evenly. Be sure that the mounting location is deep enough for the speaker to install into.

Only mount to a flat surface. Use extra caution when mounting on panels with ureathane foam.

2. Refer to the specification chart to determine the proper diameter hole to cut for your speaker model.

Cutting and mounting are on page 8 of this manual

3. Mark the locations for the mounting screws. Drill the holes with a 1/8" bit.

4. Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect to the speaker terminals. Be sure to observe

proper polarity when connecting the wies.The speakers positive terminal is indicated with a +'.

5. Fit the trim ring over the speaker and mount into place using eight (8) screws )included).

6. Tighten the screws until the speaker is snug in place to prevent warping the frame. Also make sure

that the screws are tighten all the way around and there are no air leaks visible as this will cause

serious performance issues
