Select Increments Mod-Pods Manuel Du Propriétaire

  The poly-fil included in each pod should be fluffed up prior to installing the speakers for the best sound.  Make sure there’s no   

debris in each pod, as it could compromise sound quality.  Armor-All® or equivalent can help give the pods a darker black, 
glossy look. 

  Make sure to plug the remaining air space around the wires at the grommet holes with wax, glue gun, etc. to avoid any ‘whistling 

noise’ caused by allowing air to escape from inside the pods.  This will also make the speakers perform better. 

  For ’97-’06 TJ’s, you may need to remove excess seam foam from the factory where the pods install.  Each Jeep is a little 

different and some have more foam in the areas under the doors than others.  Test fit the pods to see if they fit fine and rest flush 
against the side wall and door channel.   

  For ’97-’06 TJ’s you will have to remove the wire guard on the driver’s side to install the driver’s side pod.  You can take 

measurements, cut the wire guard, and re-attach the remainder of it from the pod toward the rear of the vehicle.   

  You may have to cut the speaker holes larger for certain speakers if you purchased the pods empty. 

  If you’re using an amplifier, you probably know how you want to run the speakers.  If you’re not, it’s suggested that you tap into 

the dash speakers to run the pods.  Your fader control will then adjust the dash and pods at the same time.  The pod speakers will 
be marked +/- but the dash wires can be confusing.  Usually the darker wire with the stripe is the ground wire.  You can attach 
one of the dash speaker wires to the positive terminal on a 9 volt battery and when the speaker cone pushes outward, you have the 
positive wire. 

  When you’ve run all the wires and are ready to affix the pods to the vehicle, only ’97-’06 TJ owners will use the pre-drilled screw 

holes and should run the top screw in first when mounting a pod.  CJ & YJ installs will not use the pre-drilled screw holes and the 
holes should be plugged.   

The pods can be attached to the sidewalls different ways.  Using Locktite caulk is a great way, just put some on the back of the pod 
and press it to the cleaned sidewall of the vehicle.  You can also drill holes in the bottom of the pods and insert 3/8” t-nuts (available at 
your local hardware store for pennies.  Then, run 3/8” bolts that are 2” long through the t-nuts and as they begin to push into your 
carpet and floor, the pod raises into position under the door channel.  The pre-drilled screw holes will not be used and must be 
plugged with wax, glue gun, etc. to seal the chambers and prevent any whistling noise.
