General Info

Some sound systems may vary in size of the door speaker. Before you start the assembly, make sure that your vehicle is the same size as this kit. The installation process may vary depending on the car model, factory options and other factors. The approach is similar to all of the described car models. Some screws and clips may be placed differently and depending on if the tweeter is placed in the A-pillar or side mirror, the course of action may vary. Take care when removing panels, so there will be no marks. Use plastic pry tools to avoid marks on the panels and damaging the plastic clips.

• Use a small flathead screwdriver to remove the plastic cover. Be careful and avoid making ant notches. Unscrew the torx.
• Unscrew the 2 tor screw in the lower door panel.
• The lowest part of the door is locked by three philips screws (PH1 or PH2) and expansion plugs. If the expansion plugs are broken. Replace them.
• To remove the door panel, all clips needs to be released. Use the PRY-tool to release the clips marked with the white circles.
• When all clips are released, you need to press out the door pin in the upper area of the trim. Push the pin and the plate in the direction of the window (away from you).
• Remove the door panel. Unclip the release cable from the door handle. First lever out the white clip (1). The door release cable is now loose and can be removed from the front turning the cable and unhooking it.
• Unplug all electrical and speaker connections.
• When every clip, lever and electrial connection is unhooked, unhook the door panel from the two lower hooks on the door. lilt the door panel away from the door and lift upwards.

Remove OEM Speaker

• Remove the speaker by unscrewing the 4 screws.

Mount DLS Speaker

• Mount the new DLS speakers, using the OEM screws. Make sure the speaker is properly mounted and fits nicely.

• Finally, reconnect the speaker connector to the DLS woofer.

Remount Door Panel

Start the reassembly of the door panels. Follow this manual in reverse order. Reconnect all cables. Connect all plugs to the door panel, reconnect the unlocking device and the electrical connectors then place the door cover so that the two lower hooks are in place at the bottom. Push the door panel in place so that the window seal is in the right place at the top. Make sure the clips are in place and can engage. Give the door panel a push by the hand to attach to the clips. Mount and fasten all screws to the correct places. Make sure that no screws or clips are left over.

Hint!
Take care when installing the door panel, to make sure no wires get squeezed and/or pressed against the midrange speaker when it’s installed in the door frame.

Remove OEM Tweeter

• Use the Pry tool to remove the cover of the tweeter on both the driver and passanger side. Carefully lever the trim upwards, the cover is secured with clips.
• When all clips are loose, remove the cover.
• Use a flat head screw driver to extract the tweeter of it’s holder in the dashboard.
• Then remove the original connection of the tweeter. Press the release button to unplug the connector.

Crossover Settings

• Connect the crossover using the factory connector. Use the remaining wrapping foam to secure the crossover and cables.

Tweeter Level

The yellow cable loop is a tweeter-level selection, enabling fine-tuning of the high-frequency sound.

• Closed loop = -4dB {Shown in the picture below)
• Open loop = Normal {Shown in the picture below)

By closing the loop as shown in the picture above, the tweeter gets less power in the higher frequencies, making the sound seem less intense. We recommend using the closed loop setup in installations where the factory tweeters are angled towards the listening position.

Mount DLS tweeter

• Connect the new DLS tweeter to the car’s OEM connector. Make sure the connectors click together.
• Take one of the adhesive foams and cut it in half according to the picture below. Wrap one part around the connectors, and one part around the yellow tweeter-loop cable, to avoid rattle and noise.
• Tweeter connectors wrapped in adhesive foam.
• Tweeter-loop cabel wraped in adhesive foam

Mount DLS cover

Hide the the crossover in the tweeter slot, inside the dashboard. Press down the new tweeter cover in an angle. Start at the window. Make sure that all clips engage properly.

Now do the same procedure on the passenger side.

Running-in Time
The component kit will perform at it’s best after 15-20 hours of running-in time. The running-in time can be played with a tone, or by just playing regular music. Start your listening at a moderate level and increase the volume as time goes by. After 15-20 hours of listening the performance and characteristics will be as intended.
