Notes:
• Be sure you match the speaker
wires to their corresponding posi-
tive (+) or negative (–) speaker
terminals to ensure proper phas-
ing. Improper phasing can cause
poor bass response.
• If your speaker system includes
rear speakers, the same color
code applies. If your auto sound
system has a front to rear fader,
connect your speakers as follows:
MOUNTING THE
SPEAKERS
Follow these steps to mount the
speakers.
1. Remove the door panel you want
to mount the speaker on and find
a location where the speaker will
fit. Most vehicles have a prepared
cut-out area in the door for
speaker placement. Use the sup-
plied template to be sure the loca-
tion you choose is large enough
for the speaker opening.
Note: To be sure the speaker will
not interfere with your vehicle’s
window mechanism, roll down
your vehicle’s window completely.
If the window has a hand crank,
be sure the speaker will not hinder
you from turning the crank.
2. Mark the mounting hole locations
and outline the speaker on the
door panel using the supplied
template.
