INSTALLING THE CROSSOVER Step 1: Find a location for the crossover away from any fac-
tory or aftermarket electrical wires. It is recommended to mount the passive crossover close to the amplifier.
Step 2: Remove top cover of crossover housing. Don’t lose it. Step 3: Mark the mounting holes with a marking pen. Step 4: Remove crossover and pre-drill mounting holes using
a 1/8” drill bit.
WARNING: Window mechanisms, electrical wires, and other expensive car parts have a nasty habit of hiding where you least expect. CHECK BEFORE YOU DRILL!
Step 5: Mount the crossover using the supplied #8 screws. Step 6: There are two sets of connections on the crossover.
The input terminals (IN) should be connected to the source (radio or amplifier). The woofer terminals (W) should be con­nected to the midrange speaker. The tweeter terminals (TW) should be connected to the tweeter. Be sure to observe the correct polarity. Changing the polarity of the tweeter may be necessary for optimum sound quality.
Step 7: Re-install the crossover cover.

FINDING SPEAKER MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Choosing the correct speaker locations can have a significant effect on the sound quality of the system. There are many dif­ferent considerations for choosing the locations that best suit your needs. The locations must be large enough for the speakers to fit without interfering with other vehicle parts such as window mechanisms, etc. Care is needed to ensure that the location you have chosen will not affect any of the me­chanical or electrical operations of the vehicle. If minimal intru­sion in your vehicle is desired, factory speaker locations may be the ticket for you. Placing the speaker in the factory loca­tion can often give you very desirable results. Alternative loca­tions to consider include mounting in customized kick panels, rear decks, or side panels.
FLUSH MOUNTING THE TWEETER
FIXED PANELS Step 1: Determine the tweeter mounting location, then route
the wires from the crossover to the tweeter location.
Step 2: Mark the center point of the tweeter location. Step 3: If using a hole saw, first drill a pilot hole, then cut out
the hole using a standard 2-1/8" hole saw. Step 4: If not using a hole saw, use either the cardboard
packaging for the tweeters or the surface mount trim ring as a template to mark the proper size hole. Cut out the hole.
Step 5: Remove the tweeter from the flush mount housing and insert the proper length machine bolt through the center hole of the housing.
Step 6: Connect the speaker wires observing the correct po­larity.
Step 7: Screw the bolts in until the tweeter housing is firmly mounted to the panel. (Make sure the arrow at the rear of the tweeter housing is pointing in the desired direction.)
Step 8: Insert the tweeter into the housing and attach trim ring.
FLUSH MOUNTING THE TWEETER
REMOVABLE PANELS Step 1: Determine the tweeter mounting location, then route
the wires from the crossover to the tweeter location.
Step 2: Mark the center point of the tweeter location. Step 3: If using a hole saw, first drill a pilot hole, then cut out
the hole using a standard 2-1/8" hole saw. Step 4: If not using a hole saw, use either the cardboard
packaging for the tweeters or the surface mount trim ring as a template to mark the proper size hole. Cut out the hole.
Step 5: With the tweeter assembled, route the wires through the hole and the pressure ring and slip the pressure ring over the tweeter assembly.
Step 6: Align the tweeter so the logo faces the desired direc­tion then push the pressure ring on to the rear of the tweeter assembly until the tweeter is snugly mounted to the panel.
Step 7: Connect the speaker wires observing the correct po­larity and re-assemble the panel.
DOOR MOUNTING
When considering possible speaker locations in the doors, be sure to check the operation of the window mechanism and all other moving parts inside the door. Most vehicles use a stabi­lizer stop bar in between the door and the door jamb. This bar prevents the door from opening too far, but may intrude into the speaker mounting area when the door is closed. Many do-it-yourself installers overlook this and check for speaker clearance only when the door is fully open.
REAR DECK MOUNTING
In rear deck installations, check the operation of the trunk suspension springs or tension bars. These tension bars can move when opening and closing the trunk and can exert a great deal of force against anything that obstructs their move­ment, such as a speaker basket or motor assembly. In addi­tion, try to avoid locating the speakers too close to the back edge of the rear deck. Installing the rearmost screws may not be possible without the removal of the rear window.
INSTALLING THE MID-BASS Step 1: Determine where the speaker will be mounted. Make
sure there is a flat area large enough for the speaker to fit properly. An uneven mounting surface can damage the driver and limit the bass performance of your Sedona Series com­ponent system.
Step 2: Check to make sure the mounting location you have chosen for the speaker will not interfere with the operation of the vehicle.
Step 3: Using the supplied template guide, mark the hole with a pen. [Skip this step if using correctly sized factory loca­tions]
Step 4: [Skip this step if using correctly sized factory loca­tions] Cut the hole for the speaker. A hole can be cut either with a pair of metal tin snips, an air or jig saw, or with a hole saw corresponding to the size of the woofer listed below.
5 5/8” Hole Saw (6½” woofer installation)
WARNING: Window mechanisms and electrical wires and other expensive car parts have a nasty habit of hiding where you least expect. CHECK BEFORE YOU DRILL!
Step 5: Run the speaker wire to the speakers. Make sure to
keep wires away from sharp metal or other edges. When passing through metal, use a protective grommet.
Step 6: Turn the speaker backwards against the surface & mark the mounting holes with a pen.
Step 7: Pre-drill mounting holes using a 1/8" drill bit. WARNING: Window mechanisms and electrical wires and
other expensive car parts have a nasty habit of hiding where you least expect. CHECK BEFORE YOU DRILL!
Step 8: Pull the wire through the speaker opening and con-
nect to the speaker. Be sure to observe proper midrange po­larity during this process.
Step 9: To mount the speaker, the speaker is placed through the grille ring from the front. Place the speaker and the grille ring in the installation hole. Align the mounting screw holes and drive in the four mounting screws. Push the perforated metal grille back into the grille ring.
SURFACE MOUNTING THE TWEETER Step 1: Determine the tweeter mounting location, then route
the wires from the crossover to the tweeter location. Step 2: Place the surface mount housing against the panel
and mark the two holes at the rear of the housing. Step 3: Drill the smaller center hole using a 1/8" drill bit. This
is the mounting screw hole. Step 4: Drill the larger off-center hole using a 3/8" drill bit, in-
sert a grommet and route the speaker wire from the cross­over through the grommet.
Step 5: After removing the surface mount tweeter assembly trim ring, route the tweeter wires through the larger hole in the housing and connect to the speaker wires from the crossover.
Step 6: Insert the excess speaker wire into the hole and posi­tion the housing so the housing will not pinch the wires after final mounting.
Step 7: Attach the housing using the supplied screws of the correct length for a solid mount.
Step 8: Insert the tweeter into the housing and attach the trim ring.
