it's quite simple... i just did two on my MTs with no problems....

best advice is to use 5 minute epoxy that comes in the SELF mixing container, make sure the voice coil is evenly spaced in the motor gap (use manila folder or something) and get something heavy enough to put on top the dust cap to press the surround, spider and dust cap down until it dries...

Its not hard but i recommend using expoxy for all of the gluing.

............what makes it work? just having the coil down in that gap makes it work lol?

I recommend using regular paper, cut to correct size. Or if you use a manila folder, use paper as well... to make sure it is TIGHT in the gap.

This is the MOST crucial part of a recone.
