Hifonics BZE65C, BZE69CX, BZE65CX Quick Start Installation Manual

Most modern vehicles have speakers that are mounted directly to the structure of the door. Access is achieved by the removal of the door panel. Some vehicles may only require the removal of a small panel around the speaker itself.
Most rear speakers are accessed from within the trunk. Some may require the removal of the rear package tray. Hatchbacks and SUV’s will usually require the removal of a side panel.
Once the factory speakers are removed, check the fi t and determine if there is enough depth clearance for the new speaker. A good way to do this is to roll the window down and back up while holding the speaker in place. If you decide to run wires, make sure to use factory harness boots and grommets where ever possible.

CAUTION
Always consider consulting a professional audio installer
before installing new speakers. Many car manufacturers locate
speakers behind interior panels that require special tools to
remove those panels to access the speakers. Some panels will
be screwed in, some will use plastic fasteners, many will have
both. Be careful and take your time.
If you are using the speaker wire supplied with your new
speakers make sure that you run the speaker wires through
the factory boot. Do not let speaker wire make contact with
metal edges of doors or other access holes.

Vehicles that have premium sound systems will often have separate tweeters in a dash or door location. Try to use this location for mounting the component tweeter if possible.
If there is not a suitable factory location for woofer or tweeter to be mounted, custom mounting may be necessary. Before making any permanent changes to your vehicle make sure there is adequate mounting depth.
There are two primary ways the tweeter can be mounted. Surface and Flush mounting. The fl ush mount confi guration is shown here.
The crossover is necessary for the proper operation of the component speaker system. Make sure the wires are securely attached and that there are no stray strands of wire contacting other terminals. Mount the crossover to a secure surface that is free of interference from window mechanisms and excessive moisture.
