Friday, April 22, 2005 - 03:43 GMT yeah build it in the trunk lol. As for the sealant i always use silicon. Dont put your sub in the box right away give it 24 hrs to dry. A torn surround i forget but someone on here answered that before post it as a question again. ps...please dont tell me you tore you eclipse ti?

Friday, April 22, 2005 - 04:18 GMT its acoustic insulation i used it years ago when i built my fist subwoofer boxes to boost the airspace the woofer saw....i bought it at radioshack not sure how thick it was anymore but if its 1 inch thick i can make the box size smaller and adjust to do two layers of the acoustic stuff for 7 cf box space the sub will see

Friday, April 22, 2005 - 04:36 GMT Hey sub. Try fixing that subwoofer with some Bycicle Rubber Glue. It comes in a Small tube and ur supposed to rub it around the patches on the bycicle tube, but i the genious, decided to use it on my subwoofer. And it worked perfect, its like a strong rubber glue that comes out in a clear jelly and drys a tad green. But it honestly worked like a charm. Wierd? haha :P. I got it in a little bycicle tube repair kit thing with some patches n glue's :P
