I just installed my 6.5" component speakers about 2 days ago, today I got them sounding great ect, but I forgot to put the grills on. So I'm getting out of my car and I lose my balance (low sitting car) and put my foot right into the center of my Alpine Type-X mids. I completely crushed the little cone thing in the center, but did not rip it. The rest of the speaker is fine, should I try to pull the crushed part back out or what?

Holy Crap ..
That made me laugh.

Sorry to hear about your bad trip.
I think your talking about either the dust cap or the phase plug.
I'm fairly certain a dimple in either will not effect the sound.

You might want to install either the speaker grills or some running boards.

Have fun,

Thats what it looks like after the crushing.. The middle part used to stick up.
