Ensure all hardware is included before beginning installation. Note: In order to properly install these speakers into your sound bar you will need to purchase or fabricate a speaker mount to replicate the OEM speaker's mounting pattern.
Installation Instructions:
1. Carefully open your box and ensure both speakers and both tweeters are included (Figure A).


2. Once you've unboxed all the items, remove the speaker cover on the driver's side of the sound bar (Figure B) using a torx 15 bit to remove the three bolts (Figure C).


3. Once the speaker cover is removed (Figure D), dismount the OEM speaker using a torx 15 bit (Figure E) to remove the three bolts.



4. Disconnect the speaker from the wiring harness by depressing the white tab (Figure F).


5. Connect the new speaker to the wiring harness by either:
a. Cutting off the white harness end (white harness end shown in Figure F) and connecting the black and white wires directly to the wiring connector provided in the box (Figure G) or
b. By connecting your new speaker to a wiring harness already connected to your new speakers (aftermarket; not included) as shown in Figure H.


6. Insert the three bolts and remount the new speaker using an aftermarket mount (Figure I).


7. Insert the three bolts and reattach the speaker cover (Figure J).


8. Repeat Steps 2-7 on the passenger side sound bar.
