Speaker Placement: Take a few moments and hold a single speaker up to the machine
so you can see a good place to attach them. As stated earlier, the speakers were
designed in such a way that they could be mounted in front of the driver and
passenger. From a purely audio perspective, this is the preferred placement for the
speaker as long as the placement does not impede the line of sight for the driver, or
upset the safe operation while the vehicle is in motion!
Using the above image for reference, remove the top clamp bolts and top clamp.
Loosen the bottom clamp bolts so the bottom clamp can turn freely between the
splines on the underside of the clamp, and the splines on the cabinet. You can now
choose the spline location to choose the best “left/right” alignment. Once chosen,
tighten the bottom clamp bolt to secure the splines together.
Attaching the speakers: Once you have chosen a good location, and have the
“left/right” alignment set, its time to attach the speakers to the machine. The bolts
that came in the clamps during shipping will be long enough for most installations.
You will see a second set of longer bolts that came in the bag with the rubber clamp
inserts. These additional bolts are used for tube diameters of 2.0”. Using the above
image for reference, make sure you place the “rubber clamp inserts” between the
clamp and the tube of the machine. Put the top clamp over everything, and using the
correct length bolts, secure the clamps to the machine. Note: The top and bottom
clamps are made of cast aluminum. Although they are very strong, we suggest
securing the clamp bolts using hand tools instead of powered or pneumatic tools.

With everything adjusted, please take a few minutes and “clean up” any wiring
making sure it is properly secured to the vehicle. Have a seat in the vehicle and
make sure the speaker placement, or the placement of any of the parts of this kit
will not impede the safe operation of the vehicle. Now is a good time to use the
heatshrink to cover the audio out plug for BT1 where it plugs into the amp.
With everything properly secured, the system is now ready to enjoy!
