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 speakers too close to the back of the rear deck. Installing the far screws will only be possible with the removal of the rear window.
INSTALLING THE MIDRANGE
Step 1: Determine where the speaker will be mounted. Make sure there is a flat area large enough for the speaker to fit properly. An uneven mounting surface can damage the driver.
Step 2: Check to make sure the space you have chosen for the speaker will not interfere with the operation of the vehicle.
Step 3: Using the supplied template guide, mark the hole with a pen.
Step 4: Cut the hole 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.
