What is the material of the speaker?

Can I install this speaker myself?
Yes, DIY installation is possible if you have basic automotive tools and are comfortable removing car door panels. However, if you are unsure, professional installation is recommended.
Troubleshooting
No sound from the speaker after installation.
Double-check wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correctly polarized. Verify that the car's stereo system is functioning and that the balance/fader settings are not directing audio away from this speaker. Ensure the part number compatibility is confirmed for your specific B5 model.
Distorted or crackling sound.
Ensure the speaker is securely mounted and not vibrating against the door panel. Check for any obstructions around the speaker. If the distortion persists at higher volumes, the speaker may be overdriven, or there might be an issue with the audio source or amplifier.
Speaker does not fit properly.
Reconfirm the part number compatibility with your B5 vehicle model and year. Ensure no modifications were made to the mounting location. The speaker is designed for specific fitments, so a mismatch indicates a compatibility issue.
