1.5 tweeters

I am re-installing my tweeters in the door panels of my truck, they are flush mount style. My last installer just drilled the proper hole and put them in and just attached the locking ring that came with them, they would loosen up and not sit flush I would constantly tighten them down. It drove me nuts. I would like to know the PROPER way to install these tweeters, do I attach the locking ring then run a bead of silicone on the back of the panel and do i put dynamat down for a tweeter? please pros only thanks they are mb quart fsa 216 components if that makes a difference-A vision without a plan is just a hallucination-

Most tweeters have a back cup with holes that can be used for screw mounting.  If it's in a door panel you may need to use clips to screw into.Support the12volt.com

these ones are threaded with a detachable locking ring no screw holes,no cup, any suggestions? what about dynamat?-A vision without a plan is just a hallucination-

There is no reason to use dynamat for a tweeter.  I know those tweeters came with a backing cup.  Perhaps your installer tossed them.  All I can offer is sure, try silicone caulk, but beware it might discolor the door panel around the tweeter.Support the12volt.com

thanks DYohn I called my installer and he said he might have some cups laying around. I asked him about the cup issue and he stated that the direction said to install them the way he did, I think ill just do it myself from now on that way itll be done right-A vision without a plan is just a hallucination-

All to common problem with mounting tweets.   Sometimes the panels too thick, sometimes the best imaging position isnt perfectly flat. Then you got constant slamming of the front doors which naturally are the location comp sets are installed the most. Forget about it. I remedied by little dabs of hot glue at the pressure points of the locking ring mechanism.(whatever type your faced with) Which is cool cuz you can reheat glue to remove if needed. Cups on *aimable*pivotal* (forget the word) tweets that I have worked with always interfered with the wiring.(I dont use the supplied cable and do use insulated connectors) Who we kidding. Just tape that bitch down, thats what scotch tape is for!This is what I do for FUN!

I hope that scotch tape thing is a joke becuase thats basically what my last installer did, if you work at a shop ianarian, I hope you would never ever even consider doing that to a customers vehicle, I spend hundreds of dollars on installs and it really ticked me off to know that my tweeters were not installed properly I dont remember what it cost me but I know it wasnt cheap. Futhermore if that is your profesion you should do it to the best of your ability thoughts like that shouldnt even be suggested on a forum such as this especially by someone who has experience.There are alot of people on this forum who are loooking for the right direction not the half-assed get r done method. sorry for the rip but im tired of having bad advice given to me by the inexperienced joking or not, The hot glue thing was a decent suggestion though.thanks for the input-A vision without a plan is just a hallucination-
