INSTALLATION

Start by moving the seats all away forward to get easy access to this area, it is optional if you want to remove the seats for running wires or easy installation on both driver and passenger side of the vehicle. (Picture 1)

Assemble the rear bracket to driver side speaker pod using (2) M6 Washer and (2) M6 Screw per bracket. The bracket will need to remain loosely hand tightened during this step. (Picture 2)

Secure the front side of the speaker pod removing the factory plastic clip that secures the vehicle factory plastic side panel to a bracket welded to the chassis tube, then use the supplied long screw with a washer and bolt it on using the factory hole through the speaker pod and tight it by hand using a screwdriver. (Picture 3)

Once the speaker pod is resting on its position, you can go ahead and fully tighten the rear bracket. (Picture 4)

Repeat steps 2-4 to install the passenger side speaker pod.
This kit needs to have an aftermarket amplifier pre-installed that can handle 2 ohms load per channel with the speaker wires in this location, only after this step you can connect the speakers pods using the aftermarket amp’s speaker wire. This concludes the installation of the SLG-SP6LD and it is ready to enjoy your new sound system upgrade!
