BASIC INSTALLATION 
Selecting the placement of your new R Coaxial 
speakers could be as easy as using the existing factory locations or may 
require you to create a new location. Speaker placement in the door, dash, 
or rear deck is the most common. See your local Phoenix Gold Dealer for 
additional location and mounting assistance.
DOORS /REAR DECK
1.  Many vehicles already have factory locations (Figure 1) to house the “DROP 
IN” feature of the R Coaxial speakers. If no existing locations are available 
or are not used, check the desired location for adequate cutout area and 
any depth obstructions. Make sure to allow sufficient clearance for window 
tracks, structural braces, trunk lid springs, etc.
2.  Assuming enough area and depth is available, use the provided template 
and trace the speaker cutout and mounting holes onto the surface of the 
mounting location.
3.  If the mounting surface is not structurally strong enough to accommodate 
screws, (i.e. plastic, cardboard) use the pro vided speed clips which will act 
as a nut for the supplied screws.
4.  Always provide water protection, if not supplied in the vehicle. We suggest 
using a rain shield or equivalent. If in doubt, please contact your  
Phoenix Gold Dealer.
SPEAKER INSTALLATION WITHOUT GRILL
Phoenix Gold has provided a foam mounting gasket. When installing your 
new component speakers in a factory location make sure to use the foam 
mounting gasket as shown in figure 1. For reverse mounted speakers place the 
foam gasket in front of the speaker. This will ensure an air tight seal for your R 
speakers. 
For more custom applications, or cases where the factory grill will not be used, 
a high excursion protective grill has been provided. When installing your new 
component speakers with the provided R grill use figure 2.
