needs . The locations must be large enough for the speakers to fit . Care is needed to ensure that
the location you have chosen will not affect any of the mechanical or electrical operations of
the vehicle .
Determining the best location for the speakers will depend on your cosmetic needs and your
vehicle's interior . If minimal intrusion in your vehicle is desired, factory speaker locations may
be the ticket for you . Placing the speaker in the factory location can often give very desirable
results .
DooR MounTInG
When checking for possible speaker locations in the doors, check the operation of the window
and all assemblies . There is also a stabilizer stop bar in between the door and the door jamb .
This bar prevents the door from opening too far . Many shade tree installers overlook this and
check for clearance only when the door is fully open .

In rear deck installations, check the operation of the trunk suspension springs or tension bars .
These tension bars move in the opening and closing of the trunk . You cannot be too cautious
during this part of the installation, In addition, do not locate the speakers too close to the back
of the rear deck . Installing the far screws will only be possible with the removal of the rear
window .
