Sure! Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install the Rockford Fosgate T1650-S component speakers:
1. Before starting the installation, disconnect the negative lead from the battery to prevent any damage to the unit or potential injury.
2. Determine where you want to mount the speakers. Make sure the mounting location is large enough and deep enough to accommodate the speakers. If mounting in a door, operate all functions (windows, locks, etc.) to ensure there are no obstructions.
3. Refer to the specification chart in the manual to determine the proper diameter hole to cut for your speaker model. You can find cutting and mounting templates on the Rockford Fosgate website.
4. Mark the locations for the mounting screws and drill the holes using a 1/8" bit.
5. Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect them to the speaker terminals. Make sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the wires. The positive terminal is indicated with a "+" symbol.
6. Fit the trim ring over the speaker and mount it into place using four screws. Tighten the screws until the speaker is snug to prevent any rattling, but avoid over-tightening.
7. For the tweeters, determine the mounting location and ensure there is enough space for them to fit. Mark the location for the mounting hole and drill it using a standard 1.75 inch (45mm) hole saw.
8. Secure the inner cup of the tweeter from the front of the door panel to the outer cup from the back of the door panel using a single center xxxx . Tighten the xxxx until balanced pressure is applied to both faces of the mounting surface.
9. Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect them to the speaker terminals. Again, observe proper polarity with the red wire indicating "+" and the black wire indicating "-".
10. Snap the tweeter into place and secure it with the snap-on trim ring. The protective grille on the tweeter is non-removable and an integral part of the design.
11. Once the speakers and tweeters are installed, you can proceed with the wiring. Use the provided illustrations in the manual to properly connect the speakers and maintain speaker polarity.
12. If you prefer to use a crossover, follow the instructions in the manual to connect it. The crossover may have additional features such as tweeter level adjustments and tweeter attenuation switches.
That's it! You have successfully installed the Rockford Fosgate T1650-S component speakers in your vehicle. If you have any further questions or need assistance, you can contact Rockford Fosgate customer service or consult the manual for additional information.
