hardware. (Be sure to reuse the original rear bracket in conjunction with the new mounting bracket) (See Figure 2)
12. Place the speaker box with the mounting bracket in the vehicle and line it up with the original mounting holes. Using (2) ¼ X ¾”
self-tapping screws fasten down the rear brackets to the original mounting holes. (See Figure 2)
Warning! Make sure that there is nothing under the vehicle that will be damaged by the drill bit when drilling, the emergency
brake is close to the drilling location.

23. Lock it up!
ATTENTION:
FREQUENT LUBRICATION IS NECESSARY ON THE LOCKING SYSTEM
The pushbutton lock contains an “O” ring seal to protect the interior from dust and water. If this mechanism is not
lubricated regularly it will become difficult to operate and it may not return to its home position preventing the key from
operating the lock. If this happens simply pull up on the pushbutton to manually bring it back to its home position.
Lubricate the pushbutton with a light lubricant such as silicone spray. The pushbutton may have to be periodically
disassembled and cleaned.
