INSTALLATION

The performance of the HCCA Component tweeters is directly proportional to the quality of installation.. Care taken during the installation process will be rewarded with years of satisfying performance.. If you are unsure about your installation capabilities, please refer to your local Authorized Orion Dealer for technical assistance.. Orion dealers are trained professionals dedicated to extracting the maximum performance out of your Orion system.. If you decide to install this speaker system yourself, please read the entire installation section before starting your installation..

FINDING SPEAKER MOUNTING LOCATIONS

Choosing the correct speaker locations will have the greatest effect on the sound quality of the system.. Different considerations are needed when choosing the locations that best suit your needs.. The locations must be large enough for the speakers to fit.. Care is needed to ensure that the location you have chosen will not affect any of the mechanical or electrical operations of the vehicle.. Determining the best location for the speakers will depend on your cosmetic needs and your vehicle's interior.. If minimal intrusion in your vehicle is desired, factory speaker locations may be the ticket for you.. Placing the speaker in the factory location can often give very desirable results..

DOOR MOUNTING

When checking for possible tweeter locations in the doors, check the operation of the window and all assemblies.. There is also a stabilizer stop bar in between the door and the door jamb.. This bar prevents the door from opening too far.. Many shade tree installers overlook this and check for clearance only when the door is fully open..

REAR DECK MOUNTING

In rear deck installations, check the operation of the trunk suspension springs or tension bars.. These tension bars move in the opening and closing of the trunk.. You cannot be too cautious during this part of the installation, In addition, do not locate the tweeters too close to the back of the rear deck.. Installing the far screws will only be possible with the removal of the rear window..
