was pulling the alpines out today to put in a mates TL and the magnet on the speaker was covered in water and all back of the plastic speaker holder, and a whole puddle when i pulled the plasic off, is there a way of cutting down the amount of water that goes near the speaker?

plastic shielding to divert the water around the sides or to make it drip behind instead of onto the speaker is the only way I could think of. When I put the fronts in my TR doors I left the plastic door lining intact and had the speaker pushed into that so any water should stay on the other side of the plastic sheet.
