I got in my Rainbow 265.25 Kick NGs on Friday, and I've got everything wired up and playing, but now it's time to mount the tweeters. It's going into an '04 dodge ram and I'll be fiberglassing some pillar pods. There's countless tutorials on fiberglassing, so I'm not as worried about that, but how do I get these tweeters to fit snugly so they wont move? It's a bouncy truck, and wobbles side to side when I go over a bump while turning. I'm afraid just relying on a "snug fit" might not be enough.

Here's a picture of the tweeters next to the woofer:

And one of the tweeter itself:

It comes with a flush mount bracket, but it doesn't have any way to mount, other than using something like silicone, which I hear is not good to use around speakers. The lip on the flush mount bracket is less than 1/4", so silicone might squish out the sides even if I barely use any. Anybody else have a good idea?

I was thinking about possibly putting velcro around the inner diameter of the mounting bracket to give it something to bite when it sits in the hole.

 
in a case like that, i actually just used a 1.75 holesaw for ones i did and a dab a glue and activator but thats only if you can get them off ez enough afterwords.... good luck.....
