Level the Mounting Bracket and mark the wall by tracing the inside perimeter of the Mounting Bracket with a pencil. Repeat the same procedure for the In-Wall Speakers using the supplied template to trace a 9-1/4" diameter hole for each InWall Speaker. (See Figure 3) If you are cutting a painted or wallpapered ceiling, use a razor-knife to cleanly cut the wallpaper. Then use a drywall saw to cut the drywall. !
