Polk Mono MMC5250 Owner's Manual page 7

Installing the Mid/Woofers in Non-Factory Locations
If you have decided to install your Polk/MOMO Series mid/woofers in locations other than
those provided by the automobile manufacturer, make certain that the location you choose
is clear of all obstructions, both in front of and behind the panel, before you proceed. Pay
particular attention to window mechanisms and any body panels critical to the structural
integrity of the vehicle. The mounting depths and cutout diameters of your Polk/MOMO
Series mid/woofers are listed with all the other important specifications at the end of
this manual.
1. Cut a hole in the panel (5 inches or 12.7 cm hole for the MMC6500,
4-5/8 inches or 11.75 cm hole for the MMC5250).
2. Use the speaker grille as a template for marking the locations of the
four screw holes.
3. Drill the holes with a 1/8" bit.
4. Attach the screw clips to the car panel at the hole locations.
5. Cut the supplied speaker wire in half.
6. To mount the passive crossover gently pry up on one end of the silver crossover
cover. This will expose the two center mounting holes for installation.
7. Reattach silver cover to crossover.
8. Connect speaker wires to the crossover "woofer" terminals. Attach the red
wire to the positive (+) terminal screw, and the black wire to the negative (-)
terminal screw.
9. Route the driver wire from the crossover location through grommets to the
mid/woofer location.
10. Attach the red wire to the positive terminal (larger terminal) on the driver.
Then attach the black wire to the negative terminal (smaller terminal)
on the driver.
11. Attach the red wire to the positive red wire on the tweeter. Then attach the black
wire to the negative wire on the tweeter. Make sure the clear plastic insulators fully
cover the Faston connectors otherwise you may short the tweeter leads and possibly
damage your amplifier.
12. Strip 1/4" (6 mm) of plastic insulation from the cut ends of the driver and
tweeter wires. Connect the positive and negative wires to the woofer and
tweeter out on crossover.
13. Drilling may be required to accommodate the installation of your MOMO MMC
Component Series Drivers.
14. Using the hardware retained from the factory speaker or the screw clips supplied
with the Polk/MOMO speaker, secure your new speaker to the car panel.
