Door Speaker Question
That is exactly what i was asking about. Somethink like that or similar. I was wondering if it would maybe make it a little bit louder? I was just curious about that. thank you for your help. I don't really know if louder would be the term. Just better sounding in general I always hear here that sound is very install dependent so i was just curious if there was a way to get a bit more "loudness" i guess.

Door Speaker Question
No i don't mean a ring. I mean like something behind the speaker, I just cant think of the word to describe it. The speakers are the walmart sony xplode 5 1/4" Coaxials. I got them because the car only had a set of 6x9's in the rear package tray and needed something for the front. I was just wondering if there was something similar to the PVC cap idea i could use to put the speaker in, the speaker itself is mounted directly in the factory cutout in the doorpanel

Radio pop?
Try a noise supressor there also called ground loop isolators. Before you spend money on it I would check your grounds

Door Speaker Question
I have a couple questions. First would be: I have an 86 Ford Crown Vic that i just installed some 5 1/4 coaxials in the front kick panels, and i was wondering if i added a baffle or some type of backstop if it would increase the volume a little bit. I dare not list the speakers in question because of the shittyness. They are just mounted in the factory location under the door panel cover. Second question would be if i ran 2 sets of four ohm speakers to my two channel amp what ohm load would the amplifier see. Amp is a RF punch 450.2 powering 2 sets of coaxials. I ran the left channels both positives to the amps positive speaker output and the same with the negative. If this needs clarifying then please let me know. Thank you very much. Edit: Wrong forum sorry. Mods if you will please move to speakers/subwoofers.

Where can I get rubber gaskets?
You could try emailing sub companies that come with those on the subs, I got an old fosgate 12 from a buddy a few years back that had one on it. Im hoping it fits the lethal injection 12 im orderin soon. The 187 i got from them came with one so the LI's should to.

I Got The Wrong Speaker
Check the coils with a DMM if there not what there supposed to be then Contact nick at IA. Ive dealt with him and ordered from him and he was super helpful im sure he would swap it out.

How did you guys find SSA???
I was directed to IA from CAF and saw the SSA store.

Vented or backseats?
Why not just sell 1 sub then make the proper ported box for 1 18, and keep the back seats?

Addiction sucks.
To the OP: It takes alot of balls to admit so something like that, even if its only on an internet forum. Ive been through it before, you have to figure out what triggers you to use, and avoid then figure out more positive ways to cope with your triggers.

What sub
What box are you building for your Type R's? That set up will probably be a good bit louder, but its all install dependent. Have you looked at other IA subs a pair of Lethal injections would get pretty loud in the right box.

Help me with my electrical systm please!!
Belt squeel means the belt is slipping which can mean its not turning your alternator to charge your electrical. Till you get this fixed i would advise you to keep your bump down and watch that voltage to avoid ruining your battery.

How do I test voltage from amp?
You could always just test your voltage at the batt, or before the amp.

Upgraded exhaust with system?
I had strait pipes on my crown vic. It sounded good but the pipe dumped under the back seat so it was loud inside. Now i have true duals with mufflers sounds better much quiter but Its almost to quiet. I like it now though.

Amp question and other questions
Look into audiopipe. Decent budget amps that do power at 2ohms. But if you can get a used or refurb sundown.

Car audio career
I appreciate all the responses and advice here. Thank you. If i can get a regular job working at bestbuy then i will try to move on to the install bay. If not i will try to go talk to some local shops. Im not a guru by any means but i think i know enough to be able to be taught. I just hope i can find someone willing to teach me and give me a chance. If not maybe i can just do it as a side job. I cant really do the box building thing because of the lack of tools, but i could definately run some wires the right way and hook up a system. Hell most the people around here have no idea what an ohm load is. I also understand that this all may not be a good idea for a long term career, but i turn 18 tomorrow and have been trying to think about the future. Don't want to keep working at lil caesars all my life lol.

I understand that i just think it will help and places won't look twice at someone without certification.
