the narrow part of the front angle ring for the preferred angle of operation. Place the wire through the long
mounting nut and loosely tighten the mounting nut around the tweeter. Rotate all the parts in unison until
the tweeter is angled in the desired direction. Secure the assembly by tightening the mounting nut. See
Fig. 5.
For surface mounting applications use the surface mount cup as a template and pre-drill one 7/64"
(2.5mm) screw hole (using two holes is optional) for attaching the surface mount cup to the panel and
a 5/16" (8mm) hole for the wires. An M3 pan-cross head wood screw is supplied to attach the surface
mount cup to the panel. Position the tweeter over the surface mount cup and screw it into position. See
Fig. 6.
CROSSOVER MOUNTING
Mount the crossover in a location that is easy to access for wiring and tweeter output level adjustment.
Make sure that the crossover will not be exposed to water. The bottom of the car door is not a good
location. If you must mount the crossover in the car door, exercise caution as water can accumulate in the
bottom of the door. Keep the crossover high in the door and shielded from water.

If factory speaker wiring is not available in your desired location, it may be necessary to run speaker wire
through the door jamb. The speaker wire should be kept away from sharp edges and avoid the possibility
of getting pinched by the door. An existing grommet in the door jamb is the ideal place to run the speaker
wire. If the factory hole and grommet do not exist or are inaccessible, you must drill a hole to run the
speaker wire through the door jamb. Be careful not to drill into other wiring or existing door mechanisms.
Any time a wire is run through a hole, it is necessary to insert a rubber or plastic grommet to protect the
wire from damage.
