We strongly recommend that you have your new Q series speakers installed by your authorized MB Quart dealer. The installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and experience to disassemble your vehicle, install your new speakers and reassemble everything properly. If you prefer to perform your own installation, it is very important that you read the entire manual first.

DOORS!
-Remove the cover of the crossover by squeezing either side. This exposes the mounting holes for securing the crossover to a flat surface. Prior to
