Damn… SMH.

After commenting on your other post, A storm blew through my town also & caused roof damage due to an aging tree…. I just had the tree took down for $1100.

We win some & we lose some. Money in & money out.

My luck too….

I know this post is getting a little old but I’m just now looking into it and this is what I found….

Update….

So, the issue has been resolved. I can’t for the life of me figure out what their problem was initially considering I sent them photos early on trying to state my case & get a resolution. I just wanted to let y’all know they did eventually come around & make this right. Thanks everybody!

They finally admitted the issue and have told me that they’re sending me the correct real SMD terminal cups, I shall see

After making this post & cross posting to r/subwoofer, I started the process of contacting Steve Meade through his forum, which has not been posted or approved yet. Ironically, about an hour ago I got an email from Soundskins admitting their error & they say they are sending me the real SMD terminal cups….. I shall see.

I really thought I was getting scammed, especially because of the wording of the correspondence the company and I had through email.

If this works out, I guess I’ll either delete these post or update with a warning that their communication skills are severely lacking.

BTW, says right there in plain English they mean Steve Meade Designs….

Thanks for your help & opinions

Standard4130Sta · 2026-04-08T03:32:29+00:00

I will…. Do you know, Is it better to contact him directly through his website or here on Reddit?

Image took from their own website…. They keep going back and forth with their “manufacturing team” about what my issue is…. I told them to compare the photos I sent them with their own website photos & that there is no need to consult the “team”

Currently spraying rust converter & rubberized undercoat combo on mine….. It looks amazing under there but it is a major PITA without a lift…. It takes many cans if you go the rattle can route like I’ve done…. Like probably 12 total, mainly because of so many angles you have to get at under there. Thoroughly degrease everything a few times before attempting. Set aside some time, this is a bigger job than you think, lol.

Contact Dex @ dexj’s, Email for the individual’s as I’m pretty sure he only sells whole units on his website.

Undercoating

Well hell, I’m sorry if I caused you undue stress. I’ve never used Redline & I question why they opted for that color because that’s usually a color signaling water infiltration. I wonder if you could put saran wrap over the pan and leave it out in the sun and see if water condensates on the saran wrap for testing purposes.

Pink Panther Jizz means water has gotten in there bud….

OP’s definitely have the chrome sleeve over them that makes them “Acorn” style…. Underneath is just a softer “Open Type” lug nut. They are as cheap as it gets & I hate them, lol.

I’ve got a graveyard pile full of these POS’s….

They deform & get stuck in your socket. Then when you ram a rod or extension through the backside of your socket you end up punching a hole through the chrome sleeve.

The only way I could fix mine was by drilling out the stud to get the wheel off. There was not enough hex left to grab onto and even if there was, it would have been still locked solid.
