    Definitely the biggest sound insulation results I saw on mine were doing the whole trunk, it removed the road echoing effect when going on the freeway. Truly amazing what you’ve done to the corolla!

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      My trunk is going to be soon! I bet that’s is where most my exhaust sound is coming from as well!
      I already notice a decent difference with the doors!

    the putty is meant to be put under the mounting screws as an airtight seal
    pretty much what you did with the foam.

    Guys, coming from someone who bought Skar 6.5s and 6x9s, just don’t. Save up and actually get good speakers. Their subs are hit or miss and their amps use accent tech but I was seriously unimpressed with their TX series speakers. Saved up and got some Sony ES speakers and holy crap those things were amazing. Wish I had those things even now.. much more accurate, bass is tight with the perfect touch of warmth, mids n highs were on point and not ear piercing sharp. Clear, a hint of warmth, tight n accurate. Not the most expensive but certainly not cheap either. Very much a quality upgrade over the Skar speakers. But at the end of the day in car audio, if your having fun that’s all that matters, I’m just a smol SQ audio snob

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      For the price the Skars they seem to be great so far! I will see about longevity!
      I had some JBL speakers in my last car, and these honestly sound just as good for about 1/3 the price!
      Maybe I might try some Sonys if these start giving me any issues!

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      😂 in the US, the civics and Corollas are considered lower end cars, which makes them fairly cheap compared to many other cars on the road!

    I wanted to boost our 2010 corolla s but ended up just getting a 99 gs400 for $2k
    300hp/310tq, 4.0l V8, rwd, toyota reliability, dual climate control, premium sound system, leather heated seats, traction control button, sport/snow mode, shift buttons on the steering wheel, hid auto leveling headlights, don't have to deal with a turbo which is amazing and the engine is easy 300k+ miles reliability
    sure it is almost 1000lb heavier but it's worth it for the luxury and the v8 is truly amazing, it just keeps pulling past 135mph
    don't get me wrong the corolla has amazing handling for what it is and I like the compact size still but for what you get for that money just didn't make it worth it in my books, love the build though

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Honestly that’s a steal of a deal! If I could have choose between the 2 I would have picked the Gs400 as well!
      Got plenty of power, and all the luxury features that the corolla does not have!
      I appreciate you watching the build!

    Powerbass OE65C-TY component set. Vehicle specific plug and play replacements that actually sound good for the $$. Tweeters fit the stock location perfectly. Also mounted a GM specific set in a friends truck. So easy compared to trying to mount a conventional component set. Didn't sound deaden the truck like the Corolla, but it was still a very noticeable improvement.

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s amazing what just upgrading the speakers can make a big difference! And the sound deadening definitely makes a difference as well!

  • @bassdrop4420
    @bassdrop4420 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    the foam around the speaker is supposed to be used on the front of the speaker to couple the speaker to the door card to aim the sound bette!!

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s good to know and makes sense!

    • @bassdrop4420
      @bassdrop4420 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @BrandonStellmach also the large foam plug is to be installed directly behind the speaker in the door, and you should have gotten a deep one that helps to couple the speaker to the plug! If you have enough dampner to do the whole door you will get so much more out of your front stage. And just some food for thought if you decide to do a component speaker set up front make sure the tweeters are as far forward and as close as possible aimed to the center of the roof! It will dramatically increase the sound staging and will be amazing also!!

    • @BrandonStellmach
      @BrandonStellmach  หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@bassdrop4420these are all great tips! I appreciate it! I definitely did not know that about the foam. I thought it was just universal and just sat behind the speaker! I plan to go back and upgrade the tweeters, I just did not find a good replacement yet, but will take your tips into consideration when I do upgrade them!

If you know the corolla platform, there is not any good options for brackets on the front, so reusing them not only saves me the DIYer money, but works just as good as the factory one did! If you did continue watching, you would see the rear speakers I used a set of mounts that work great!
