I used the Peel and Seal in my front doors and it helps reduce the tinny sound greatly. You'll be glad you did this, speaker improvement or not.

the new speakers into the housing using "automotive goop." I'm now going to apply some "peel and seal" type stuff to the inside of the doors like people do when they are doing this front speaker project. I found 2 products at Lowe's. The actual Peel and Seal 6" x 25', and something called "Seal Tite" (or something very close to that) 4" x 25'. I figured that smaller width would be easier to apply inside the door and hopefully will do as good of a job deadening the sound. Quite a bit cheaper per square foot, but not as thick as peel and seal. |
