General information
This manual has been designed to make HELIX PRECISION automotive loudspeaker installation and ownership as trouble-free as possible. Please read through this manual completely before attempting any installation steps and familiarize yourself with your new speaker system.
You will need your purchase receipt as proof of purchase for any and all warranty repairs and for insurance purposes. Keep your receipt, owner's manual, and packing materials in a safe location for possible future use.
Pre-installation instructions
It is recommended that you have your new HELIX PRECI­SION automotive loudspeakers professionally installed by your authorized HELIX dealer. This will ensure the use of proper installation techniques and materials, and will save much time and effort. If you choose to perform your own installation read the following information and precautions carefully.
Failure to follow the stated precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage the audio system or vehicle.
A. Always make sure the speaker will easily fit into the intended mounting location and that there is adequate cavity depth to accept the magnet structure.
B. Check for adequate clearance between speaker and window, window crank, power window mechanism, seat, glove box, rear deck torsion bars, and other items which may interfere with the speaker's mounting. This is especi­ally important if any hole cutting is required. Complete speaker, mounting size and depth requirements can be found at the end of this manual. A good way to confirm speaker place meet on a door or body panel is to place the speaker's die cast mounting ring onto the surfa­ce. Check for a flat mounting surface, free from all obstruction.
C. The method of installation chosen and level of execution will effect the overall performance of the speaker system. Treat each installation step with a high degree of attention.
D. Do not mount the speaker where water may splash the woofer cone. A plastic cup or some heavy gauge plastic sheeting may be needed in some locations that are exposed to moisture from behind the body panel.
E. Care must be taken to prevent low frequency cancella­tion caused by air leakage between the front and rear of the speaker (such as when mounted on a curved or uneven surface, or when mounted in an oversized hole).
F. Mounting panel reinforcement may be necessary in some cases in order to prevent surface flex. This can be achieved by mounting the speaker on a metal or wooden sub-baffle behind the body or door panel. Consult an instal­lation specialist for further direction.
G. Unless you are replacing existing speakers of same size, mounting locations will have to be cut into the doors, body panels, or rear deck. In some cases speaker mounting holes will be precut in the doors, body panels, or rear deck steel. Due to their structural integrity and accessibility. These precut mounting holes should be used whenever possible.
IMPORTANT: Never cut any metal that is an integral part of an auto­mobile's safety or structural supportsystem.
HELIX PRECISION Speaker Installation
NOTE. HELIX strongly recommends that you operate the complete audio system at low volume before final installa­tion of your HELIX PRECISION automotive loudspeakers. This will allow a trial listening test before securing the loud­speakers into their mounting locations.

Woofer installation
Main features
CAUTION: Make sure that all speaker wiring is fully protected from cutting or wear. Any short circuits developing as a result could severely damage the radio/cassette unit or amplifier. Make sure that all speaker wires easily reach the speaker terminals with stress on the wire or connectors.
Securing the loudspeaker
Once you have tested the complete speaker system and have confirmed correct operation, turn the audio system off and prepare the loudspeaker for final mounting.
1. Place the loudspeaker within the mounting ring as shown in the illustration below.
2. Position the loudspeaker assembly into the mounting hole and confirm correct mounting screw hole location. Proceed to insert mounting screws through the loudspea­ker mounting assembly and use the provided screw clips to capture the screw. Tighten all screws evenly.
3. Place the speaker grille within the basket and mounting ring and make sure the grille makes contact with the grille mounting adhesive.
