Subwoofer repair

Hi guys, excuse my lack of vocabulary here, I will try to explain as best as possible: I have an MB-Quart DVC sub that was making a nasty vibration sound when on. Upon inspection, I can see that the cone (part of sub that moves, which you can see when sub is mounted) has become detached from the yellow part which it is usually connected to, directly below it (this part moves the cone I believe. it is yellow, wavy and made of some sort of treated paper it seams). I searched and found this post: https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=56138&KW=latex I'm wondering if DYOhn's first post there applies to what I am trying to do. In it he states that you can re-glue it using latex water based glue. I hope I have explained this well enough. What is the yellow piece called (motor structure maybe?) where can I get latex water based glue? thanks for your help guys

I've seen people use gorilla glue on some small tears or more than once where the cone is seperating from the surround and it makes it last a little longer. I don't really encourage this, just a last resort.

That yellow wavy thing is called the "spider" It controls the motor assembly. Um...I would try some epoxy...but I am no repair specialists...worked for me when my friends surround came apart from the actual basket

I have used gorilla glue only when it has come unglued, worked ok, if its the actual spider that is torn try some kind of adhesive that stays some what flexible, liguid nails makes a clear silicone like substance that stays flexible after it drys it seems to be stickier than regular silicone. Make sure to give it time to cure once glued and don't get your hopes to high I have seen some repairs work for years some for minutes.............. 

thanks guys, there is no tear in the spider, it has just become detached from the cone. I guess I'll try some latex/silicone in there.

I've had a lot of success with marine sealant, it has strength and is VERY flexable.There is no such thing as free installation!

Sorry if this is thread jacking but hell I have a question of repairing also. My cousin has two RF 12" P2 twelves. They were in a sealed box in her trunk and she also uses her trunk as her mobile closet (what girl doesnt??) Well her sub box slid and one of the subwoofers had an accident with one of her stilleto heels and punched (no pun intended) a hole in the foam surround. The hole is about the diameter of a sharpy pen. So how would I go about repairing this?? I am going to build a box for her new camry that fires the subs up so she can throw all kinds of crap in the back without damaging the woofers.

^if you search speaker repair, there are a few threads about this. I think that there are links posted to where you can buy new surround foam

Thing is that isn't an option lol

why not? cut the old one off and put a new one on
