Protecting my cone

[Hyperlite 10+ year member]

The only disappointing thing i have found thus far regarding my TC1000 is the ridiculous thinness of the cone. a tap from a fingernail will leave a dent. Therefore, i want to buy or construct some sort of covering or cage to put over the driver, so i don't have to worry about things sliding around in the back of my rodeo. any suggestions or products you guys know of that would help me out?

Good luck finding one that isnt more cosmetic than real protection.

Most are made for looks now.

There are tons of grills out there that are more form than function.. just not in the car audio world it seems.. hit up any musicians store or even large radioshack. Marine and home stereo builders use great ones.

Here's one of the first I found that I think I will be getting to protect my own tc1000
