Mounting

Before mounting
A depth of at least 73 mm (2 7/8 in) is required for flush mounting. Measure the depth of the area where you are to mount the speaker, and ensure that the speaker is not obstructing any other components of the car. Keep the followings in mind when choosing a mounting location:

• Make sure that nothing is obstructing around the mounting location of the door (front or rear) or the rear tray where you are to mount the speaker.

• A hole for mounting may already be cut out of the inner panel of the door (front or rear) or the rear tray. In this case, you need to modify the board only.

• If you are to mount this speaker system in the door (front or rear), make sure that the speaker terminals, frame or magnet do not interfere with any inner parts, such as the window mechanism in the door (when you open or close the window), etc.
  Also make sure that the speaker grille does not touch any inner fittings, such as the window cranks, door handles, arm rests, door pockets, lamps or seats etc.

• If you are to mount this speaker system in the rear tray, make sure that the speaker terminals, frame or magnet do not touch any inner parts of the car, such as the torsion bar springs (when you open or close the trunk lid), etc.
  Also make sure that the speaker grille does not touch any inner fittings, such as seat belts, head rests, center brake lights, inner covers of the rear wipers, curtains or air purifiers, etc.
