My budget front speaker upgrade (pics) - Toyota Yaris Forums

robkay · 10-03-2018, 09:38 AM

I'm having a, "Why didn't I think of that?" moment. I can't recall why I didn't go with baffles. I think I read mixed reviews about them, plus the price was off-putting. I hadn't even thought of making them.

What I would be tempted to do (for the door mount speakers) would be to buy a can of that spray-on leak sealing product and coat the back side. That way if any any rain ever dripped down it wouldn't soak into the foam. You would want to test it on scrap, though, because some solvents will damage foam.

5 bucks vs 40. That's a win!
