Step 4: grab your router/trimmer and remove the meat from the brace just enough to fit the speaker into.. u dont want to go to far or it will fall apart.
Step 5: Mark out where u want your tweeter to go on your door.. and use the guide to mark a hole... drill a small in the center then put the trimmer in a make it to size.. go a little to small first and see if it fits and make ajustments from there dont go to far... unless your after the DIY crap look. install the tweeter following the guide on the box.. pretty strate forward

Step 9: turn on the head unit and test it.. if it all works fine then you have done a good job.. if it dosent check wiring... and check that your head unit is not on mute :confused: if still not working contact someone who knows there shit
Step 10: put all the trim and trimmings back on and the only change you should notice is the new sweet looking tweeter
Step 11 : Repete on the other door
