INSTALLATION GUIDE
for the
M103EWS-CG-WH-R/M103EWS-CG-WH-L
SKU#90136/90137
We strongly recommend that you have your new Enclosed 3-Way Weatherproof Subwoofer/Satellite system installed
by your authorized JL Audio dealer. The installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools
and experience to mount the enclosure properly. If you choose to attempt the installation yourself, please read this
installation guide completely before beginning the process.
If you choose to perform the installation yourself, it is absolutely vital that the
enclosure be properly mounted 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 other such accident.
STEP 1
Determine the desired location for the Enclosed Subwoofer/
Satellite then decicide on which surface would be the
best location for the universal mounting bracket. It can
be installed on any side of the enclosure to fit a variety of
applications. Here the bracket is shown on the top.

STEP 2
Align the template on the enclosure. The line on the
template can be used as a guide to help center the bracket
around the notch on the top of the enclosure.
Tape the template in place, if needed.
STEP 3
Mark the center of both mounting holes on the enclosure,
and remove the template.
