Default 5.25" speakers in front door non bose

what have you guys done to seal the speakers to the backside of the door to create a baffle? Ive got a set of polk audio 5.25" components and i cant seem to find a way to seal them to the door. Thanks always

Default Erm... They're not sealed? They're just open-air...

And if you're trying to squeeze 5.25" in a 4" spot, you're probably not going to get a seal anyways. Just fab up a bracket and don't worry about it. Components aren't designed to be sealed, so they'll be fine.

Default If you're worried about water damage, you can get some baffles like these...
