every speaker and amplifier connection. The supplied speaker wire has a white
stripe to indicate the (+) positive conductor.
Termination
The woofer uses an angled locking screw connection integrated to the basket of
the speaker. The tweeter wires are terminated with molded connectors (male and
female). Use the supplied wire with insulated connectors to extend the tweeter
wires to the crossover section. Alternatively you may solder the tweeter wire
connections and insulate them with high quality heat shrink tubing.
SPEAKER INSTALLATION
Woofer installation
The woofer will fit into many standard factory mounting locations using the
existing mounting holes in the automobile. Remove the trim panels and inspect
the installation locations before you cut and drill the holes required to mount the
woofer. Removing the panel will also make it much easier to route wiring inside
the door. Look for original equipment speaker installation cutouts that can be used
to install the woofers with little or no modifications. Use the supplied template to
help you locate and mark the holes needed to install the speakers.
If the planned installation location is in a door panel, be sure the speaker will not
interfere with the window lowering mechanism. Ensure that the speaker wires are
positioned to clear all moving parts inside the door.
For each woofer you will need to cut one large hole and drill small holes around
the circumference. If the mounting surface is covered by carpet or fabric, use a
knife or razor to cut the material away from the holes to be cut. This prevents
material or fibers from becoming tangled in the drill bit or cutting blade. If you
are using the packaged metal screws provided in the hardware kit, drill the four
speaker mounting screw holes with a 1/8"(3 mm) drill.
Clean the work areas of all filings and shavings with a vacuum cleaner before you
proceed with woofer mounting.
Woofer mounting
Route the speaker wire from the woofer installation locations to the crossovers.
Pull the wire through the installation hole and attach the terminals on the ends
to terminals connections on the speakers. Refer to the speaker wiring section of
this manual and the wiring diagrams. Push the wire back into the area behind
the installation location and be sure it will not interfere with the speaker or get
snagged by any mechanisms in the area.
Attach the supplied foam gasket strip to the mounting surface of the speaker.
This will ensure an air tight seal, which is required to achieve the best bass
performance.
