Installing Speakers In Nonstandard Locations –RM9
Notice
Check the clearance of both speaker locations. Your vehicle may not be
symmetrical.
If installing in the trunk, check for clearance with the trunk lid opened
and closed. If installing in the doors, remove the interior panel. Avoid
possible speaker contact with door frames, handles and window tracks.
Check the window clearance by rolling the window up and down. Also
check for clearance with the door open and closed.
The Boston Rally Series speakers are heavy, and must be held in place
by a strong, rigid structure.
1. Trace the template onto the mounting panel.
Mark the pilot hole, the
edges of the large cutout and the locations of the screws.
2. Make sure that the mounting surface provides a complete air seal
between the front and the back of the speaker.
If the surface is uneven,
or if air can leak directly from the back of the speaker to the front, seal the
air leaks with silicon sealant or weather stripping. Make sure that the seal-
ing material does not touch any moving part of the speaker.
3. Drill four

" holes for the speaker’s mounting screws.
Make the large
elliptical cutout with a saber saw or nibbler (depending on the material).
