Installing the Mid/Woofers

Step 1: Determine where the speakers will be mounted.. Make sure there is a flat area large enough for the speakers to fit properly.. An uneven mounting surface can damage the driver..

Step 2: Check to make sure the space you have chosen for the speakers will not interfere with the operation of the vehicle..

Step 3: Using the supplied template guide, mark the mounting hole and mounting screw hole locations with a pen for each speaker..

Step 4: Cut the holes for the speaker.. When using correctly sized factory locations, this step can be passed.. A hole can be cut either with a pair of metal tin snips, an air or jig saw, or with a hole saw corresponding to the size of the midrange listed below..

WARNING: Check for clearance of window mechanisms and electrical wires BEFORE you drill..

Step 5: Run the speaker wire to the speakers.. Make sure to keep wires away from sharp metal or other edges.. When passing through metal, use a protective grommet..

Step 6: Pre-drill mounting screw holes using a 1/8" drill bit..

WARNING: Check for clearance of window mechanisms and electrical wires BEFORE you drill..

Step 7: Pull the wire through the speaker opening and connect to the speaker.. Be sure to observe proper mid/woofer polarity during this process..

Step 8: Mount the speaker- Place the speaker and the grille in the installation hole.. Align the mounting screw holes and drive in the four mounting screws..
