Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:

1.  Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before 

attempting to install these speakers.

2.  For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to 

beginning the installation.

3.  For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting 

your speakers in place.

4.  Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize 

signal or power loss.

5.  Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel 

lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when 
working on any vehicle. If installation in a boat, take care not to cut or 
drill through the main hull.

6.  Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the 

vehicle or hull area provides the best protection.

7.  Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or 

plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially 
the firewall.

1.  Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large 

enough for the speaker to mount evenly. Be sure that the mounting 
location is deep enough for the speaker to fit; if mounting in a door, 
operate all functions (windows, locks, etc.) through their entire 
operating range to ensure there is no obstruction.

2.  Refer to the specification chart to determine the proper diameter hole 

to cut for your speaker model. Cutting and mounting templates can be 
found at www.rockfordfosgate.com.

3.  Mark the locations for the mounting screws. Drill the holes with a 

1/8” bit.

4.  Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect to the speaker 

terminals. Be sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the 
wires.The speaker’s positive terminal is indicated with a “+”.

5.  Fit the trim ring over the speaker and mount into place using four (4) 

screws.

6.  Tighten the screws until the speaker is snug in place to prevent 

rattling. Do not over tighten the screws.
