It’s absolutely the worst.
Every time you open the trunk your eyes are going right to the two screws he dug out of his toolbox.
Don't worry it isn't your car and I'm pretty sure the OP really doesn't care what you think so no need to keep repeating your opinion.

I guess it's a good thing it isn't your car and your eyes won't be drawn to it and since he's the one who did it, I doubt his eyes will be drawn to it too much either. C'est la vie.

Don't mind the resident keyboard jocky.
Aren't you Mr. perfection. If you have nothing nice to say, keep it to yourself. I am not a meth head you butthole.
Don't mind the resident keyboard warrior. There's always the that one guy who gets off on talking shit to strangers on the internet.

I don't think the trim ring can be ordered. The box is one unit. Probably a subcontracted part. Maybe Velcro or a dab of RTV would better.

Photo attached of the finished product, Note the added (2) black head screws on the outer ring tabs.

To cover the screws you could use some caps, e.g. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5DT97PS

S650 Mustang 2025 Dark Horse, OEM B&O Sub replacement - Pioneer TS-D10D4 71ArRCpSbsL._SX522_



Edit:
To my understanding, Shepherd dude didn't call you meth head.
To follow his analogy, your "butthole" text could rather be "Your sentence reads like it was written by a butthole".
(free advice on diplomatic writing from someone who often unintentionally sounds like a butthole :giggle: )

I’m going to be nice and help you. Go to the dealer and get a new locking ring. They can have it in a day or two. The job will look A LOT cleaner.
You can thank me later it‘s ok.
i can’t get my ring to go back on because of those stupid tabs broke when I took it off!

it appears from what I can tell that Fird does not sell the ring by itself, only the whole damn sub unit at around $750!

Not happy.

im thinking of using some small
Strips of Velcro to hold it in place ☹
