hhowell1990 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) I've got a BTL 15 and when i was installing it in my new box a buddy of mine was drilling the screws in and one of them slipped off the drill and stabbed a hole in the surround. I'm going to order a re cone friday when i get my paycheck but i've got a couple of questions before i order, is the basket that i have now going to be glued to the motor assembly or is it only going to be held together with screws, and do Fi's recones come with instructions?

Beanz Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 is it a big hole in the surround? if not i think you can use silicone or hot glue on the back so that it will stay Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

hhowell1990 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 I knew i'd need a new basket and since for the 18 it's only $39 more it's more than worth it to get 50% more cone area and hopefully i'll be :hairtrick: before too long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beanz Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 well shit if you want that man joo might need a tad bit more power Quote That's why they don't deliver.

basketball_00011 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 sucks to hear that man. im always afraid of doing that. thats why only I put the sub in haha. One question tho, where do you get the 18" basket? Cuz i got a new stlye motor 15" that i want to recone to an 18 but i have yet to find out where I can get an basket. I emailed Nick and Scott and no replys from either. Quote Brandon - Bassless since March 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed Nick and Scott and no replys from either. if you go to Fi's website under the recone section one of the options is to add the basket, its $39 more for the 18 with the basket than just the 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhowell1990 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Does that include the cost of the 18" basket? yea it's actually $49 more i was looking at just the 18 recone vs the 18 recone with a basket in which case it's a $39 difference but to get the 15 recone it's $110 and to get the 18 recone with the basket it's $159 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
