The tweeter can be mounted one of three ways: flush, surface, and angled mounting. For flush mounting applications, please refer to the illustration in Figure 2. Choose a flat location on the panel with space behind the panel to allow room for the mounting nut and motor structure. After checking the clearances, cut the recommended diameter mounting hole in the panel. Position the shorter mounting nut behind the panel. Use the longer mounting nut if the panel’s thickness prohibits the use of the shorter mounting nut. Feed the wire through the optional tweeter flange, the hole in the panel, and the mounting nut. Mount the tweeter by screwing the mounting nut onto the tweeter.

For surface mounting applications use the surface mount cup as a template and pre-drill one 7/64” (2.5mm) screw hole for attaching the surface mount cup to the panel, and a 5/16” (8mm) hole for the wires. A M3 pan-cross head wood screw is supplied to attach the

The Kicker KS series tweeters are specifically designed to bring out the high frequency definition of your vehicle’s audio system. The KS tweeters can easily replace stock tweeters in factory locations and offer several mounting options to deliver a wide range of applications for custom installations.

Location

Your Kicker KS Tweeters can be mounted in several locations throughout your vehicle. The easiest way to improve the high frequency response of your car stereo system is to replace the OEM tweeters in their original factory location. There are several other places tweeters can be custom mounted in your vehicle. The most common locations for tweeter mounting are in the door, the sail panel, the dash, the kick panel, and in the A-pillars. See Figure 1. Mounting the tweeter near the woofer maintains a more cohesive sonic response between the lows and the highs, but tweeters are often mounted in a higher location in the vehicle to elevate the sound stage.

For angled mounting applications choose a flat location on the panel with space behind the

 

panel to allow room for the longer mounting nut and back angle ring. After checking the

 

clearances, cut the recommended diameter mounting hole in the panel. Place the front

 

angle ring (does not fit through the longer tweeter mounting nut) in front of the panel. Then

 

place the wire and tweeter through the tweeter flange, front angle ring, and into the panel.

 

Next place the wire through the back angle ring (fits through the longer mounting nut), place

 

the back angle ring over the rear of the tweeter, and line-up the narrow part of the front

 

angle ring for the preferred angle of operation. Place the wire through the longer mounting

 

nut and loosely tighten the mounting nut around the tweeter. Rotate all the parts in unison

 

until the tweeter is angled in the desired direction. Secure the assembly by tightening the

 

longer mounting nut. See Figure 4.
