chapo123 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 either great stuff or silicone. but be carefull with the great stuff (expanding foam) its really messy and is impossible to take off lol i say just use silicone Quote Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boon Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Use silicone, you'll probably make a huge fcking mess with expanding foam. You'll be wondering why it's not getting any bigger and there will be a mushroom of sticky foam the size of a football chilling out in your footwell. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!

LOL okay Anyone have any silicone recommendations? Is RTV what I need? I read that RTV is flexible, sounds good for anti vibe, but would it be hard enough to protect the wires from rubbing? I don't have a grommet to fit the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
