This Stealthbox is a product which requires professional installation skills and tools. Please read this installation guide thor­oughly before beginning the project. It will guide you step by step through the installation. Several of the steps in this process may require two people to accomplish.
It is absolutely vital that the enclosure 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) and
2) A loose enclosure presents a serious safety hazard in the event of a collision or sudden deceleration.
Please enjoy your JL Audio Stealthbox responsibly.
