i believe he was talking about actual drilling bits to drill the holes for the sub mounting screws..

been there done that, but a much cheaper sub. Anymore I use a metallic sharpie to mark all the holes, remove the sub and then drill them.. Thats one of those "expensive lessons" :/

Possibly.. too little information to really know for sure. Either way, it's a handy tool when you're not pre-drilling holes.

Silicon. It works.

silicone, ca glue, and believe it or not clear finger nail polish. I've used all to fix surrounds from 5x6 to 15in subs.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif Should be able to fixer up with no prob. It'll play fine.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
