Thank you for choosing a JL Audio Stealthbox®for your automotive sound system. With proper installation, your new
vehicle-specific enclosed subwoofer system will deliver years of listening pleasure.
We strongly recommend that you have your new Stealthbox®installed by your authorized JL Audio dealer. The
installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and experience to disassemble and
reassemble your vehicle properly. Also, keep in mind that your warranty coverage extends to 2 years if your system is
installed or approved by your authorized JL Audio dealer. If you prefer to perform your own installation, please read
this installation guide completely
before beginning the process.
If you choose to perform the installation yourself, it is absolutely vital that
the Stealthbox®be properly mounted to the vehicle according to these
instructions. Failure to mount the enclosure properly presents two problems:
1) The sub-bass performance will suffer due to the movement of the enclosure
caused by the force exerted by the woofer(s).
2) A loose enclosure presents a serious safety hazard in the event of a collision
or sudden deceleration.
STEP 1
Remove anything stored in the trunk so that you are working
in a clean environment.
Unpack the Stealthbox® and test for proper operation
before continuing!
The wiring for the Stealthbox® should go from the seam
between the seatback and the floor to the amplifier location.
Along the bottom of the rear deck from the trunk, there are
two recessed areas (as indicated by arrows at left) with two
bolts going up into the deck in each recess.

STEP 5
Set the enclosure into the trunk with the woofers facing
down, attach the wires going to the amplifier. Push the
enclosure towards the seat, and tilt it up so that it rests fully
against the seat. Install the silver bolts, split lock washers
and flat washer through the slots in the previously installed
brackets into the Stealthbox®, apply pressure to the enclo-
sure so that the bolts go through the slots as close to the
seat as possible and tighten all bolts.
CONGRATULATIONS!

Using the hardware assembled in STEP 3, install two mount
brackets where bolts were removed in STEP 2. Do not
tighten the bolts down yet, just get them snug. The slotted
end of the bracket should point down and towards the rear
of the car.
