Installing Your Speakers From The Rear Of The Bulkhead
AInstallation from the rear of the bulkhead
Choose the 53⁄8 inch (13.6 cm) diameter hole size if you can comfortably hold the speaker enclosure from behind the wall while installing screws from the front. This is the preferred mounting method. If the hole you cut is not perfect, any slight overcut will be hidden by the grille.
A 1 Determine that there is enough room by reaching into the mounting area and sweeping with your hand. Determine 
where you will drill the hole for the
speaker. You should also experiment by placing the speaker enclosure behind
the bulkhead before making your final selection. Any orientation of the speaker enclosure is acceptable.
CAUTION: Determine whether any obstacles exist behind the mounting surface. To be certain, contact your boat manufacturer or dealer. Also, be certain that the enclosure will fit within the mount- ing area before drilling any holes.
A 2 The round outer edge of the template shows how much room to allow for the grille. The long end is used to plan for room for the enclosure behind the bulkhead. There are two perforated circles in the template. Snap out the smaller one.

Place the template over the area where the speaker is to be located and mark the 53⁄8 inch (13.6 cm) hole with a metal scribing tool or pencil.
Drill a starter hole that is large enough for your sabre saw blade. Be sure to drill inside and close to the line you have marked.
