MOUNTING LOCATION
The loudspeaker is weather resistant and is intended to be mounted on the outside of the vehicle or under front hood. Mount the loudspeaker facing forward and as far forward on the vehicle as possible to minimize sound exposure to occupants. Choose a location that minimizes obstructions in front of the loudspeaker to maximize forward sound. Attach the loudspeaker to a sturdy part of the vehicle to prevent vibration and possible damage. Attach the loudspeaker angled slightly toward the road so the front openings will drain off any fluids.
Cover openings of loudspeaker while drilling any holes. DO NOT get metal shavings inside the loudspeaker.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Connect the loudspeaker as described in amplifier installation manual. Use only high quality crimp connectors.
