SKU#94426
2007+
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. 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.

*CAUTION*
Before drilling, always make sure that you are not
going to be drilling into any gas lines, brake lines,
transmission lines, electrical wiring, exhaust systems
or anything else that might cause a reduction in your weekly
pay. Always wear eye protection when drilling.
Using a 1/2” drill bit, drill where the impressions were made in
the wax squares.
S T E P 3
Place the Stealthbox® into the vehicle in the orientation that
it will ultimately remain in. The speaker terminals should be
on the side facing towards the front of the vehicle. Once in
place, press down on the enclosure so that the two 3/8-16x
2 1/4” Socket Cup Set Screws make depressions in the 3” x 3”
wax squares. If the Socket Cup Set Screws do not make the
depressions in the wax squares, back them out further and
repeat the procedure untill they do. Once the locations are
marked, Back out the Set Screws so that approximately 1-1
1/2” is exposed.
