-Inch 2-Way Flush Mount Speaker System
CHOOSING A LOCATION
For the best performance, install these speakers on a solid,
firm surface that does not vibrate at high volume levels. We
recommend you mount the speakers in the door panels or the
rear deck.
Note: Cardboard or fiber panels are not good mounting sur-
faces.
While deciding on a location, carefully inspect the area be-
hind the proposed mounting surface.
• There must be a clear unobstructed area of at least 23/16
inches (56.35 mm) behind the panel.
• If it is a door location, check to be sure the window, win-
dow mechanism, and window handle will clear the
speaker. Make sure the window opens and closes prop-
erly.
INSTALLING THE SPEAKERS
1. Use the supplied template to mark the speaker opening
and the mounting-screw hole locations.
Note: You can select any 4 of the 10 holes on the tem-
plate to mark the screw positions. However, be sure the
holes you select ensure a firm mount for the speaker.
2. Cut out the marked speaker opening in the mounting sur-
face.
Note: Steel door panels and the rear deck (behind the
upholstery) might already have large cutout areas for
recessing the speaker.
3. Drill the four mounting-screw holes. Be careful not to drill
into anything behind the mounting surface.
4. Mount the supplied speed clips directly onto the indicated
mounting-screw holes that you drilled using the supplied
template.
5. If necessary, route new speaker wires from the auto-
sound system to the mounting area.
•Cautions:
• Avoid routing speaker wires near moving parts, sharp
edges, or where they will be pinched or stepped on.
You can usually route them along the channel beneath
the vehicle’s door facings.
• If you selected door locations, you might need to
punch a small hole in the door edge (near the door
hinges) to route the wires into the door. Leave enough
slack wire to open the door all the way.
6. Securely connect the positive (+) and negative (–)
stripped speaker wire ends to the corresponding speaker
terminals.
•Cautions:
• Improper phasing can cause poor bass response. Be
sure to connect (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
• Do not connect any of your speaker terminals to chas-
sis ground.

If you have a four-speaker system (front and rear):
7. Remove the grille from each speaker’s mounting bracket
to expose the mounting holes.
8. Place the mounting bracket on the speaker.
9. Align each speaker’s mounting holes and the mounting
bracket’s holes with the holes on the speed clips, thread
a supplied screw through each mounting hole, and
tighten all screws until they are secured. To secure the
grille to the mounting bracket, press small pieces of the
supplied putty into the mounting bracket’s slot
10. Firmly press the grille onto each speaker’s mounting
bracket.
