INSTALLING YOUR TR350-CXi
COAXIALS IN CUSTOM LOCATIONS:
Run speaker wire to the desired mounting
location. If you are running wires into a door, use
existing factory wiring boots whenever possible. If
you are drilling new holes,file their edges and install
rubber grommets into each hole. Then, cover the
wires with a protective PVC sleeve and run them
through the door jamb. Make sure that the wires
will clear door hinges and other structures in the
door. If you are unsure about any part of this
process, please contact your JL AUDIO dealer for
installation help.
Double check the clearance for both speakers
before proceeding.
Cut a 3 3/16-inch (81mm) diameter hole.
Before drilling or cutting, use a utility knife to cut any
fabric, vinyl or leather from hole locations. These
materials can easily be snagged by a drill or a saw,
causing damage to the panel and possible bodily
injury.Then, using a saber saw, hole saw or nibbler,
make the circular cut out for the speaker. File any
rough edges.
Once the hole is cut, place the speaker into
the hole and mark the screw positions through
the mounting tabs. Drill two 1/8” (3 mm) holes
for the speaker’s mounting screws at the positions
you have marked.
Insert the mounting clips with the flat side
towards the speaker as shown in the diagram.
It is absolutely vital that the speaker frame fits
into the mounting hole cleanly. This must be
checked prior to tightening the screws. Do not
force the frame into a hole that is too small! Do
not tighten the speaker onto an uneven surface! This
will damage your speakers. The speaker should also
fit so that no air leaks around the mounting flange.
Air leaks will cause a severe degradation in sound
quality. Seal any air leaks with silicone, rope caulk or
similar sealant material.
Connect the speaker wires, observing correct
polarity, and install the speaker as shown. Hand-
tighten the screws evenly to avoid bending the
speaker frame!
Because 3.5-inch speakers are rarely used for
custom mounting, grilles are not supplied with the
TR350-CXi speakers. Should you need them, you
will need to purchase aftermarket grilles
separately.

GETTING STARTED:
• Turn off the audio system. It is also advisable to
disconnect the negative (-) terminal of your
vehicle’s battery whenever performing
installation work.
• Before cutting, drilling or inserting any screw,
check clearances on both sides of the planned
mounting surface. Also check for any potential
obstacles, such as window tracks and motors,
wiring harnesses, etc. Check both sides of the car,
many cars are not symmetrical!
• Always wear protective eyewear.
INSTALLING YOUR TR350-CXi
COAXIALS IN FACTORY LOCATIONS:
If you will be using the factory speaker wires, it
may be necessary to change the terminations. This
may be accomplished by using an adaptor plug or
simply by cutting the factory connector off and
using the supplied crimp connectors to terminate
the speaker wires.The large connector is for the
positive terminal and the small connector is for the
negative terminal of each TR350-CXi. You may also
choose to run new speaker wires...refer to the
custom installation section for details. Whichever
method you choose, observe correct polarity in
your connections. If you are unsure about any of
these issues, contact your JL AUDIO dealer for
installation assistance.
Your new speakers have been designed to install,
without modifications, into most vehicles that accept
a 3.5-inch speaker. Most factory 3.5-inch speakers
use two mounting screws which will line up with
the mounting holes on your TR350-CXi speakers.
It is absolutely vital that the speaker frame fits
into the mounting hole cleanly. This must be
checked prior to tightening the screws. Do not
force the frame into a hole that is too small! Do
not tighten the speaker onto an uneven surface! This
will damage your speakers. The speaker should also
fit so that no air leaks around the mounting flange.
Air leaks will cause a severe degradation in sound
quality. Seal any air leaks with silicone, rope caulk or
similar sealant material.
Install as shown in the diagram here. Use the
supplied mounting clips unless the factory holes
already feature threaded inserts. Hand-tighten the
screws evenly to avoid bending the speaker frame!
