Eclipse Ti surround repair help

[JayDubb757 10+ year member]

For the past few days, I've been noticing a popping sound coming from one of my subs. Still bangs hard, and you hardly hear it in the drivers seat.

Did some more investigating today, and I noticed when the bass hits I would get air coming from the cone.

Pressed on the cone, and I can see the surround coming off the cone:crap:

Its come apart from about 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock.

Whats the best adhesive to glue the surround back?

Any tips or techniques that I should follow when doing this?

Should I pull the rest of the surround that's still glued, and glue the whole thing, or just where its needed?

Any help would be appreciated.

I would use a medium thick ca in VERY SMALL amounts, also I would glue whats come loose before I pulled anymore loose that way you maintain you VC in the center of the gap since you can't shim it.

Order goop or Ca glue from fi caraudio.... That is ur best bet it's not a total loss but this is a known problem of ti's.... Should be an easy one
