SPEAKER INSTALLATION
Firstly, make sure that the speakers will fit in your chosen location. This may involve
the removal of the standard vehicle speakers. Please use the mounting depth and hole
cut dimensions as detailed in this manual for guidance.
• If necessary cut any material away to allow the speaker to sit correctly.
• Cut out the mounting hole and pre-drill any other fixing holes.
• If required, the protective grill can be removed from the gasket and omitted from the speaker
fitting.
• If the grill is to be fitted, screw through both gasket and speaker using the screw provided until
the speaker is securely fastened.

Tweeter Installation
The tweeter can either be fitted flush mount or surface mount. Try and take into
account the following when locating a suitable position. For optimum staging try and
locate a position that is higher than the woofer but within twelve inches (maximum) of it.
It is vital that the tweeter is adjusted so that it is focused towards the listener.
surface mount tweeter installation
• After finding a suitable position for the tweeters place the base of the tweeter casing in the
correct position.
• Using this base mark the two mounting holes and the hole for the wire to pass through.
• Cut out these holes using a 2mm drill for the fixing screws and at least an 8mm hole for the cable,
ensuring that the hole cut for the cable is big enough and will not cause the cable to become chaffed
in any way.
• Pass the
tweeter cable
through the
bottom of the
case and through
the previously
drilled hole.
• Secure the bass of
the tweeter housing
with the screws
provided.
• Finally, angle the
tweeter so that it is
focused towards the
listener.

mark around it.
• Before cutting the holes double check that no brake, fuel lines or wiring harnesses are likely to get
damaged.
• Ensure that the tweeter when fitted will not catch on any moving parts such as door / window handles.
• If mounting in a door check that the window can still be fully lowered before installing.
• Cut out the hole carefully.
• Place the entire tweeter into the cut out hole.
• From the back push the metal ring over the rear of the casing until it is tight into the hole.

• After finding a suitable position for the tweeters place the cut out template for the tweeter in position and
mark around it.
• Before cutting the holes double check that no brake, fuel lines or wiring harnesses are likely to get
damaged.
