enclosures and harnesses.

These steps will follow the CHAPTERS of the Installation Videos when completed. Additionally,

it will make life less stressful to have everything ready when you are ready to put each

component into the machine.

PREPARATION

CHAPTER 2 - PREP SUBWOOFER ENCLOSURE & MOUNT

If your subwoofer is not preinstalled in the enclosure, you will need to prepare the unit by

installing the clips that will hold the door from your OEM glove box.

Next you will wire the subwoofers two voice coils and screw the subwoofer to the enclosure.

STEP 1 – MOUNT CLIPS

Mount the included hinge brackets for the OEM glove box door to be fitted on to

your subwoofer as shown in FIG 2-1 through 2-4.

(FIG 2-1)

PREPARATION

Use the provided nuts to secure the hinge brackets from the inside of the subwoofer.

Do not over tighten.

(FIG 2-2)

The clip with the closed hole mounts on the driver side with the screws on the inside where the

glove box door will cover the screws.

(FIG 2-3) (FIG 2-4)

The hinge clip with the open hole mounts on the passenger side with the screws on the inside

PREPARATION

CHAPTER 3 – SUBWOOFER INSTALL INTO ENCLOSURE

STEP 1 – INSTALL THE SUBWOOFER

Set your subwoofer enclosure on a flat surface as shown in FIG 3-1 Put the subwoofer

enclosure on its back and extend the harness from inside the enclosure as shown

in FIG 3-1.

(FIG 3-1)

For additional technical information on this and all HIFONICS products, go to the “SUPPORT” tab at HIFONICS.com

There you will find helpful, FAQ, TEQ Tips and you can contact Technical Support via email.

PREPARATION

If your subwoofer was not preinstalled, you will wire the woofer with the dual voice coils to 2

ohms (indicated with the Ω symbol) as pictured in FIG 3-2. We have prepared the internal

harness so you cannot make a mistake. Wiring the subwoofer for 2 ohms (2Ω) will allow the

subwoofer to develop maxximum power from the amplifier by perfectly balancing the impedance

with the amplifiers power output.

(FIG 3-2)

Use the connection where two wires will insert into one voice coil connector and then route the

other end of the wire to opposite connector, shown in FIG 4-3 and FIG 4-4.

NOTE – Wiring code is solid white connects to the (+) Red terminal

and White/Black Stripe connects to the (-) Negative

To open the terminals push down on the connector to open, push the soldered ends through the

hole and release the connector to establish a good electrical connection.

STEP 2 – SECURE THE SUBWOOFER TO THE ENCLOSURE

Due to the shape of the enclosure it can be very difficult to balance the subwoofer enclosure

and screw in the speaker for one person shown in FIG 3-6.

Consider having a friend hold the enclosure steady while you mount the subwoofer using HAND

TOOLS with the screws provided.

door and remove it from the brackets.

In a reverse movement you can now reinstall this door onto your new subwoofer glove box to

give your subwoofer a stealth appearance as shown in FIG 4-1.

CHAPTER 6 – MOUNT THE SUBWOOFER ENCLOSURE

With the glove box door in position and the subwoofer installed in the enclosure, you are ready

to mount the subwoofer back into the glove box location.

Sitting on the floor of the RZR, hold the subwoofer enclosure up to the grab bar pipe.

(FIG 6-1)

Mount the subwoofer to the RZR using the supplied steel plates (2), the (8) nuts, and (8)

washers shown in FIG 6-1. Use your ½ inch socket with a small ratchet tool to start to tighten

the nuts. Space is tight for any larger tools, a smaller ratchet will work best.

NOTE – Make sure the wiring harness from the subwoofer does not get pinched

behind the enclosure. This will prevent the enclosure from seating properly and

will not allow the front dash to snap into place properly.

The harness should be routed over the top of the push bar frame to the subwoofer

amplifier connector.

GRAB BAR PIPE

For additional technical information on this and all HIFONICS products, go to the “SUPPORT” tab at HIFONICS.com

There you will find helpful, FAQ, TEQ Tips and you can contact Technical Support via email.

Tighten a few threads at a time on each bolt to allow the subwoofer to rise up against the pull

bar frame evenly. This will allow the subwoofer to seat properly against the frame of the vehicle.

As the subwoofer comes up against the bar, before it is finally secure, make sure that the

speaker wire is not behind the enclosure..

NOTE - When the subwoofer starts to seat into place, push the subwoofer firmly

forward as you tighten the last thread with the mounting nuts.

This forward pressure will be critical when you reassemble the front dash for

fitment into all the clips.
