[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8497417, member: 634282"] All windows leak from rain,or collect some type of moisture, thats why they have drain holes in one corner or both..even if the seals are tight, we still roll our windows down at some point and break that seal.best thing to do is todip the MDF in a waterproofing sealer, and seal with an apoxy coating,and it will be just about water proof/bullet proof, yet, prepping the upper cut out with some deadner or Foil tap to make a half moon shaped deterrent on the inside of the door cavity will keep alot of the water from falling directly on the speaker and use ABS plastic or a couple ring spacers on the inside to pull the speaker more into the inner portion of the cabin space away from the door cavity [/QUOTE]
