Mounting 10" sub to sealed box

just put my RF punch 104 sub in my small truck box. I noticed that it leaked around the edges, and the sound wasn't that great, so I put foam around the edge to seal it. Its alot louder now, but i know your supposed to put silicon around the edge, and the back where the wire terminals are, but where do i get the correct silicon and is it required, or will it make that much of a difference. Also, if I want to remove the sub, or get a new one, how hard is it to take the sub out, and if I take it out, will it damage the box

You don't need to silicone it. The foam works just fine. Put it under the sub mounting ring, then screw the subwoofer in.

Where the screw holes are, that is called the sub mounting ring.

he means put the foam between the box and the sub. The mounting ring is the outer metal piece of the frame where you put the screws through.
