Greetings,
Here is a second printed ring option. A bit pricey but an option for those interested.

I like that... I made one like that using two different "off the shelf" spacers... cost a little less (not by much) but required some time to put it together.

Thank you, sir! I just ordered this, too. Anything to make it easier is what I'm looking for, LOL.

Well, I installed this today and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed. I'm by no means a car audio expert and to be honest, haven't done much at all since the early 2000's. But a few things to note with the RAH Performance adapter/spacer:

1. No instructions. Not a big deal since it is pretty self explanatory, but because of the following 2 issues, I think listing the size and type of screws needed and if butyl tape or some type of a seal is needed should at least be listed on the webpage of the product. Would be great if it all came in a single kit for the money.

2. No hardware. I thought with the larger holes in the adapter that the stock 6 bolts could be used in those, but nope, the holes aren't big enough. So you need new screws for the adapter to the box and also the sub to the adapter.

3. Need butyl tape or a seal? Again, I'm not expert, but I believe just setting the plastic adapter on the plastic box will leave air gaps, so I went out and bought butyl tape. Not sure if needed, but I thought this was supposed to be a sealed box and the stock sub had a seal on it.

4. This will not be an issue for some but will kill others... with the hole layout on the spacer, the text on your sub will be crooked once the box is back in the car.

Overall guys, I would say skip this unless you need the slightly extra depth for your sub's magnet to fit in the box. It created more issues than it solved.
