- 2pcs Tweeter cable 100cm (for loose ends)
- 2pcs Adhesive foam

- 8pcs Screws
- 2pcs Grills

Pre installation
Disconnect Battery: Before you start the process of replacing
speakers, disconnect and secure the negative terminal from your
battery/power source. This will prevent the risk of damaging
yourself or the products. Place the disconnected terminal in a
secure and isolated location away from any possible connection
belonging to the battery/power source system.
Installation
Mount the speakers in the door or in the dashboard of your car.
They may fit in the factory pre-made mounting holes; if not, you
might have to modify the fitting. If you want to improve the sound
reinforcement, you can use a baffle of MDF-board or similar. An
installation high up on the door side is to be preferred. For door
placements, there are normally speaker rings that have to be used
to make the speaker fit to the door panel.
In many vehicles, there are factory-made places for tweeters
that you can use for installation. If this is not possible, try to
install the tweeter close to the bass/midrange driver. The tweeter
can also be installed on the dashboard or recessed in the door with
the accessories included with the tweeters. NOTE! It is important
to fasten the speakers properly in order to avoid bad sound or
rattling. Connect the speakers and crossovers as in the drawing
below.

Installation of tweeter The tweeter can be mounted on the dashboard with the included angled housing, or recessed in a door side.
Surface mounting Put the cable through the hole in the rear end of the angled housing. The tweeter is attached to it by putting them together and turn clockwise. Attach the housing to the surface with the included double adhesive tape.
Recessed mounting You need a hole with a diameter of 43 mm/1.7″. Use glue to attach the recessed housing to the A-pillar, or door panel. The tweeter is attached to the housing by putting the tweeter into it and turning clockwise.

Door insulation DLS recommends using insulation/sound deadening in the car doors. It lowers the noise from the road/tires and prevent rattles and other noises from plastic details in the doors. If you need help deciding what type of door insulation you should use, ask your DLS distributor for info and guidance.
Running-in time
Allow the component kit to play for at least 15-20 hours in order to perform at its possibly best. This run-in can be made with tone sweep or with just music. Start at a moderate volume and increase the volume step by step during the running in period. After the 15-20 hour run in session the performance and characteristics will be in the correct condition.
