CAUTION

Always consider consulting a professional audio installer before installing new speakers. Many manufacturers locate speakers behind interior panels that require special tools to remove. Be careful and take your time. If you are using the speaker wire supplied with your new speakers make sure that you run the speaker wires only through safe areas. Do not let speaker wire make contact with metal edges or hot engine components.
