Mounting
When selecting a location to mount your Kicker amplifier be
sure it is structurally sound and that there are no items behind
the area that could be damaged by the screws. Check for brake
lines, fuel lines, gas tanks, or wiring harnesses, etc.
All amplifiers generate heat under normal operation. Be sure to
choose a location that allows adequate ventilation for the
amplifier. Also consider that the air temperature inside an
automobiles trunk can reach upwards of 140 degrees
fahrenheit. An amplifier mounted here may require additional
cooling tactics such as fans or venting to allow cool operation. If
possible, mounting the amp in the passenger compartment will
allow cooler operation.
Now that you are ready to mount your amplifier, use the
supplied 3mm allen wrench to remove the amplifier EndKaps.
This will give you access to the mounting holes in the
amplifier and all wiring connections.

With the shroud removed, drill 4 holes using a 7/64” drill bit
and use the supplied #8 screws to mount the amplifier.
Wiring
Signal can be input into the amplifier using either the low level
RCA input connections or the high level (speaker level)
connections. Using the low level RCA connections is the
preferred method. Use the high level inputs only if your head unit
does not have low level RCA type outputs.
