INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a list of tools needed for installation:
#2 Phillips screwdriver
Battery post wrench
Wire strippers
Wire crimpers
Wire cutters
Hand held drill w/assorted bits
Since some of these Punch High Performance Full Range Speakers are most often used as direct
replacements for stock speakers and are shipped without grilles, some of the following instructions
will not apply. For custom installations see your Authorized Rockford Fosgate Dealer.
CAUTION: If you feel unsure about installing this system yourself, have it installed
!
by a qualified Rockford Fosgate technician.
CAUTION: Before installation, disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal to prevent
!
damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.
Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:
1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install the Unit.
2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting your Unit in place.
4. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.
5. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic
lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle.
6. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle provides the best
protection.
7. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any
wires routed through metal, especially the firewall.
MOUNTING
1. Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large enough for the speaker to
mount evenly. Be sure that the mounting location is deep enough for the speaker to fit; if mount-
ing in a door, operate all functions (windows, locks, etc.) through their entire operating range to
ensure there is no obstruction.
2. Refer to the specification chart to determine the proper diameter hole to cut for your speaker
model.
3. Using the plastic mounting ring as a template, mark the locations for the mounting screws. Drill
the holes with a 1/8" bit.
4. Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and the plastic mounting ring (from the flat side) and
connect to the speaker terminals. Be sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the wires.
The speaker's positive terminal is indicated with a "+".
5. Fit the ring and speaker to the cutout. Mount them using the enclosed screws. Fit the grille
inside the ring and press gently, but firmly, into place.
