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.
We strongly recommend that you have your new Stealthbox® installed by your authorized JL Audio
dealer. The installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and experience
to disassemble and reassemble your vehicle properly. Also, keep in mind that your warranty coverage
extends to 2 years if your system is installed or approved by your authorized JL Audio dealer. If you
prefer to perform your own installation, please read this installation guide completely
before beginning the process.
If you choose to per form the installation yourself, it is absolutely vital that the Stealthbox
®
be properly m ounted to the vehicle according to these
instructions. Failure to mount the enclosu re properly presents two problems:
1) The sub-bass performance will suf fer due to the movement of the enclosure caused by the force exerted by the woofe r(s).
2) A loose enclosure presents a serious s afety hazard in the event of a collisi on or sudden deceleration.

Place the Stealthbox® onto the right side wheel well/side panel (mounting location).
With a pencil or marker, mark the location of the mounting hole onto the side panel from inside the Stealthbox®.
STEP 3
Remove the Stealthbox® from the vehicle.
With an 3/8” drill bit and drill, drill a hole through the side plastic panel at the marked location from STEP 2.
There is a metal side panel that is located about 4” behind this plastic side panel. The metal side panel also needs to be drilled with the 3/8” drill bit. If the drill bit being used is more then 4” long, then once you’re through the plastic panel you can then mark or drill through the metal panel. If your drill bit is not long enough. Mark onto the metal panel with a pencil or marker, through the hole that was drilled through the plastic panel.
