Speaker Repair

[bentwagon]

Hi, have a small cut in one of my speakers - the part labled surround in the pic provided. Does anyone know an easy fix for this?

Cheers

a small amount of rubber adhesive applied from the back should stop any blowby or mechanical sound the hole is creating. Fitting new rolls (surrounds) is a fairly easy job if you can purchase the correct part to suit.

Recently fixed both my original fronts with a tube of windscreen silicon I had lying around and 2 circles cut from some mouse pads. I was also conidering using an old rash top.

Quick Fix, may not be perfect but it worked. No more distortion and Zero $$$ spent.

I Loooove music but generally when driving, I'd rather hear the engine.

if its a sub , it needs to be perfect sealed off , or it will blow out again

I'd use 100% silicone, it drys and is flexible still some black RTV works as well.. if its not 100% it can rot , wont dry right, and most lilkely fall off. the real stuff smells like hell for a few days, so you might want the speaker left out for a few days to dry. or your car will stink.

some subs and good fronts/tweeters you can buy recone kits for, check parts express in usa as one source of repair kits
