[QUOTE="tcguy85, post: 3517210, member: 574289"] as some of you might know i installed a set of PG RSD's in my car exactly a month ago. i went back in to the doors cause i had a slight buzz in the plastic door skin at certain frequencies. while i was in there i noticed that the mdf baffles were getting slightly wet and swelling in certain areas. so todays project was to make new baffles and to make sure that the same thing would not happen to these as well. so i cut new ones out, then i primed them, painted them very heavily, then clear coated them very heavily. then i installed them. i totally covered them in Edead V1SE after they were mounted as well. not a hair of these new ones will be exposed to the elements again. here are a couple pics for everybody.... this is what the worst of the two looked like after only a month.. [IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1852.jpg[/IMG] the new ones covered in primer, paint and lots of clear... [IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1861.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1863.jpg[/IMG] mounted and 100% covered in butyl mat... [IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1866.jpg[/IMG] and finally all finished up with the speakers back in place... [IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1853.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1860.jpg[/IMG] this should not happen again now. :-) [/QUOTE]
