Just wanted to do another quick comment, sorry if the pictures are too big, I am not sure how to scale them down for everone.

 

Big pics are better IMO. You should have posted this in the how-to section though. PM a mod and ask them to move it. Great write-up!

 

nice how to... why did u go with 5.25 over 6.5 thou?

 

The speakers were cheaper. only 25 dollars, over speakers that could've cost me 85 dollars. I just needed a set that were cheap since it seems theres nothing that can stop the water from corroding the speakers. I will have to look into some sort of baffle to help the speakers not get liquid damage, but i love the sound.

So for a temporary fix that is what I did.

 

6.5 marine speakers would do.

 

maybe yes maybe no. good marine speakers are pricey and cheap marine speakers are far from good

you can try a few different baffle methods to try and help.... some diy peeps have mada a shade/shield for the top of the speaker to keep water from dripping on the top but it isn't fool proof. that method does give you better sound thou as compared to the second, a full baffle. you can buy them made of either plastic or foam and that would make the rear of the speaker water proof (sorta) but most speakers sound like ass in a very small space like that

 

Hey guys,
