Default 6x9 Speaker Lid Seal

Guys,

Question, what is a good product to use to seal from moisture for a 6x9 speaker on the top of a speaker lid? I have the Polk mm691's.

Thanks in advance

Do you mean seal the frame of the speaker where it meets the lid or adaptor? RTV auto gasket sealer (silicone) will work or even good siliconized caulk.

or did you install them on the top of the bag lids?

RTV silicone would be the way to go here.

Yes. They are installed inside of the bag of course but on the top of the lid. If you have seen the Polk 691s I wanted to grill to show and not that little foam piece. I didn't want moisture to get down in the bag since they are sticking straight up even though the grill is there and there are marine grade.
