Drill a hole from inside of the vehicle into engine compartment and insert grommet. Firewall Drill Hole for Grommet Battery Optional- The EBC, or Electronic Bass Control, allows a remote bass control to be adjusted from the driver's seat. Setting Crossover You should set the crossover to your own personal listening taste. The crossover is adjustable to any frequency between 50Hz (counterclockwise) to 150Hz (clockwise).
