I believe UPS didn't like Fi sending glue with them, a 5-minute epoxy form a hobby shop will work well.

Ok and how much pressure would I need to keep on the spider and cone?

Some plastic C-clamps will work, let it dry for a few hours

for a first i recommend 15 minute epoxy....because you can move the sub and everything around if it is not in place.

I got the glue from Fi when I reconed my BL.

You can get a glue kit from us in the accessories section...

I'd highly suggest using 15 minute epoxy on your first recone though. It gives you way more room for error.

thanks everyone for the help when i get my cone in i will post some pics and see if i need to do anything else to the magent before i put my cone on and i think i might get a 15" instead of the 12" because i got a new car and i can fit a big enough box

so could i just replace it with epoxy, the same kind im going to use for the recone?

Im sure that would use, I normally use locktite I havnt had a problem using it for years.

CA glue is black superglue, epoxy works as well.

Thanks guys for all the help I will post some pics when I recone it!
