1. Twist the surface mounting bracket  
and flush trim bezel and separate  
them from the speaker and wire  
2. Place the flat or angled mounting  
base onto the surface where the RT15  
Tweeter will be installed. Use a marker  
to mark where the screw holes will be.  
Drill pilot holes with a 1/16" drill bit. If  
you want to run the speaker wires  
behind the mounting surface, you will  
have to mark and drill a hole for that as  
well.  
3. Thread the speaker wire from the  
vehicle's audio system, out through the  
hole in the mounting surface, and  
splice them with the speaker wires as  
shown in the wiring section of this  
manual.  
Why do I have a whining noise coming from the speakers?  
You may have poor filtering of your alternator. If that is the case then you  
may need to add an alternator filter to the power lead.

Why do I have odd sounding noises coming from the speakers?  
You may have corroded battery terminals and/or a weak battery. If the terminals on  
the battery are corroded clean them, then check the sound. If the sound system is still  
making noises check battery strength. If it is low recharge or replace the battery.  
Mark Wire Hole  
Why does the speaker have sound coming from one channel only?  
First make sure the balance control is set correctly. If the balance is set correctly  
your stereo may be defective or the speaker may be defective. To troubleshoot  
this problem you MUST change both positive and negative leads of each channel with  
the positive and negative leads of the opposite channel, if the same speaker has  
no sound then the speaker is no good, if the opposite speaker has no sound then  
your stereo may be defective.

4. Slide the base along the wire, align

the base.

over the speaker and push until the

together.
