Flush Mounting into
Mounted Panels
1. Determine the tweeter mounting
location, then route the wires from
the crossover to the tweeter loca-
tion.
2. Mark the center point of the
tweeter location.
3. If using a hole saw, first drill a pilot
hole, then cut out the hole using a
standard 2-1/8" hole saw.
4. If not using a hole saw, use either
the cardboard packaging for the
tweeters or the surface mount trim
ring as a template to mark the
proper size hole. Cut out the hole.
5. Remove the tweeter from the flush
mount housing and insert the
proper length machine bolt through
the center hole of the housing and
connect to the spring steel X-
bracket. (See Figure 3.)
6. Connect the speaker wires
observing the correct polarity.
7. Press the X-bracket portion of the
assembly through the hole until its
legs spring open.
8. Screw the bolt in until the tweeter
housing is firmly mounted to the
panel. (Make sure the arrow at the
rear of the tweeter housing is
pointing in the desired direction.)
9. Insert the tweeter into the housing
and attach trim ring. (Refer to the
trim ring information at the end of
this section.)
