Q-Forms " C - series "
6.5" Woofer Mounting Instructions
Note: Always check the fit of the Q-Forms panel in the vehicle BEFORE any cutting or modifications are done!
Continued on other side:
Please use the model specific instructions provided for the removal of the
factory panels and the Q-Forms mounting instructions. These instructions
provide information on properly locating the woofer in the Q-Forms
kickpanel. Improperly cut holes are not the responsibility of Q-Logic and
are not covered under warranty.
Note: The “C-series” kickpanels do not include speaker grills. Use the
speaker grills supplied with your speakers. The “u-channel” provided in the
hardware kit will not be used.
The “C-series” of kickpanels are designed to accommodate most 6.5”
speakers on the market today. Models with tweeter below the woofer area
will have approximately 7” of mounting surface. On models where the
tweeter is raised above the woofer mounting surface there may be slightly
less. Please refer to the appropriate section below to properly locate and
cut the woofer hole. Refer to the pictures provided for additional detail.
When using the speaker mounting template provided with your speakers
make sure that the outside diameter of the template is the same as the
speaker grill. If it is not, first use the speaker grill to determine mounting
location then use the template to mark the cutout.
Models with the tweeter BELOW woofer level;
Place the speaker grill or the speaker mounting template on the woofer
mounting surface. Center the grill in the area. If the grill happens to be
larger than the mounting area you may choose to position the grill so that
the grill is close to flush at the top edge and the edge nearest the door.

Continued from other side:
This will position any area of the grill that hangs over to the
back bottom edge of the woofer surface where it will not be
visible when installed. With the grill on the mounting
surface, mark the screw locations for the woofer. Remove
the grill and align the screw locations with the the mount-
ing template to mark to cutout location. Use a ruler and
pencil to mark the center point of the cutout by lining up
the mounting holes opposite one another.
Models with the tweeter ABOVE the woofer level;
Place the speaker grill or the speaker mounting template
on the woofer mounting surface. The speaker grill will
most likely not fit completely against the tweeter area.
This will shift the center point for the woofer which may
result the grill hanging over the back and bottom edges of
the woofer area. You may chose to check how the grill will
look in the vehicle but it is seldom seen when the installa-
tion is complete. With the grill on the mounting surface,
mark the screw locations for the woofer. Remove the grill
and align the screw locations with the the mounting tem-
plate to mark to cutout location. Use a ruler and pencil to
mark the center point of the cutout by lining up the mount-
ing holes opposite one another.
Mark Center location using ruler:
Tweeter area may offset woofer location:
