Thank you for choosing a JL Audio Stealthbox® for your automotive sound system. With proper

installation, your new vehicle-specific enclosed subwoofer system will deliver years of listening pleasure.

If you choose to perform the installation yourself, it is absolutely vital that the Stealthbox® be properly mounted to the vehicle according to these instructions. Failure to mount the enclosure properly presents two problems:

1) The sub-bass performance will suffer due to the movement of the enclosure caused by the force exerted by the woofer(s).

2) A loose enclosure presents a serious safety hazard in the event of a collision or sudden deceleration.

S T E P 1

Remove anything stored in the trunk so that you are working in a clean environment.

Unpack the Stealthbox® and test for proper operation before continuing!

The wiring for the Stealthbox® should go from the seam between the seatback and the floor to the amplifier location.

Along the bottom of the rear deck from the trunk, there are two recessed areas (as indicated by arrows at left) with two bolts going up into the deck in each recess.

S T E P 2

The outer-most bolt in each recess must be removed.

Using the hardware assembled in STEP 3, install two mount brackets where bolts were removed in STEP 2. Do not tighten the bolts down yet, just get them snug. The slotted end of the bracket should point down and towards the rear of the car.

S T E P 5

Set the enclosure into the trunk with the woofers facing down, attach the wires going to the amplifier. Push the enclosure towards the seat, and tilt it up so that it rests fully against the seat. Install the silver bolts, split lock washers and flat washer through the slots in the previously installed brackets into the Stealthbox®, apply pressure to the enclosure so that the bolts go through the slots as close to the seat as possible and tighten all bolts.
