With my brother's car, a 1993 Bonneville SSEi, there is no place to mount the mid/woofer on the door frame inside the doors. So, when I installed his speakers(Rainbow SLC 265's) I made a mounting plate out of some wood and attached that to the door frame. The downside to this; I wasn't sealing the front off from the back of the mid/woofer. Basically the speaker is mounted free-air, which obviously won't give optimal performace. Because of the door design, I can't seal the front off from the back of the mid/woofer when doing it this way.
I could take the speakers out, and surface mount them to the front of the door panels. Now, I know that when mounting a speaker, you want to mount it to a rigid surface. Would the plastic of the door panel be rigid enough? Theoretically, should this help the performance of his Rainbows?
Please help me out! Thanks in advance.
