MB QUART MBQuart RK1-110 Instruction Manual

Most modern vehicles have speakers that are
mounted directly to the structure of the door. Access
is achieved by the removal of the door panel. Some
vehicles may only require the removal of a small
panel around the speaker itself.
Most rear speakers are
accessed from within the
trunk. Some may require the
removal of the rear package
tray. Hatchbacks and SUV’s
will usually require the
removal of a side panel.
Once the factory speakers are
removed, check the t and
determine if there is enough
depth clearance for the new
speaker. A good way to do this is
to roll the window down and back
up while holding the speaker in
place. If you decide to run wires,
make sure to use factory harness
boots and grommets where ever
possible.

CAUTION
Always consider consulting a professional audio installer
before installing new speakers. Many car manufacturers locate
speakers behind interior panels that require special tools to
remove those panels to access the speakers. Some panels will
be screwed in, some will use plastic fasteners, many will have
both. Be careful and take your time.
If you are using the speaker wire supplied with your new
speakers make sure that you run the speaker wires through
the factory boot. Do not let speaker wire make contact with
metal edges of doors or other access holes.

Congratulations on your choice of a MBQuart speaker.
This “Quick Start Installation” guide is meant to help you
“hook up” and play music. For more detailed information
on system setting, speaker and subwoofer conguration,
and full specications by model, visit the website at
MBQuart.com
It’s a good idea to conrm that you have purchased the correct
size speakers to t your vehicle. If you have any reservations
about being able to complete the installation yourself, we
recommend contacting a professional. The removal of interior
panels can be tricky and may require special tools. Be careful
as you go.

Vehicles that have premium
sound systems will often
have separate tweeters in
a dash or door location.
Try to use this location for
mounting the component
tweeter if possible.
If there is not a suitable
factory location for woofer
or tweeter to be mounted,
custom mounting may be
necessary. Before making
any permanent changes to
your vehicle make sure there
is adequate mounting depth.
There are three primary ways the tweeter can be
mounted. Surface, Flush and Angled mounting. Make
sure to check for any obstructions before cutting into
any panel.
The crossover is necessary
for the proper operation of the
component speaker system.
Make sure the wires are securely
attached and that there are no
stray strands of wire contacting
other terminals. Mount the
crossover to a secure surface
that is free of interference
from window mechanisms and
excessive moisture.
