Solo x 18 help

So I bough a used woofer motor and basket, now the bottom gasket that is on the basket is tore where can I buy a new one? Also it is missing the mounting pin for the cone where can I get that? And I wanna get the kicker bolts for the cone....... Should I call kicker for all this stuff or is there another route?

What mounting pin?

Kicker can sale you the bolts... Around $12 if I recall - for the gasket, they will direct you to just use weather striping...

When you put the cone in there's a pin that lines up with the cone and holds it in place the right way and it's not there......:and use weather stripping I'm not talking about the gasket around the magnet I'm talking about the gasket square trim piece around the top of the basket

Ohh... I don't think the 18's have the pin like the 10's/12's do (not positive though)

The piece that goes around the top, are you referring to the SLAM? Kicker has them...

(Identify the piece here: SoloX | KICKER)

Minimum order of $25, the bolts and SLAM should get you pretty close to that...

The bolts are free. Kicker sent me them numerous times. The splat for the sub is around 50 bucks or so. An what the heck is a slam? Its a BAM(basket and motor).

Never even noticed a slam lol.

You must have a connection on the inside =)

They charged me $25 for two sets (thats the 4 that go in the corners and the 8 that hold the SPAIRs in...)

The SPLAT is the metal ring that goes inside the box that the bolts thread into.

The SLAM is the cosmetic ring(s) that goes around the outer edge of the SPAIR. They did away with the separate piece on the '07 10s/12s - it's been replaced with a thinner trim and is actually glued to the SPAIR, though it can be pryed apart if not careful.
