SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION & DISASSEMBLY
Before fully dismantling your vehicle, we suggest you prepare all components, speaker panels and wiring.
It increases efficiency to have everything ready when each component is installed. Seat removal is
recommended as bus bar access in the center console for amplifier power & ground is important.
