Hi Guys,
I'm just outside Vancouver, Lower mainland area.My current car is an '03 M-Sport 330iA. Previous BMW's were an '03 330i5 and '98 318i5. Couple details on my car are Dinan suspension, intake and exhaust. Car audio is another hobby of mine, just upgraded the head unit and processing so far. Anyways, I'm hoping this is a good mature place to share ideas and gain and share some BMW knowledge.

Welcome. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen front turn signals like that before.

Very nice looking ride.
A more sensible, supportive forum you will not find. BTW, Do you have any good "bang for the buck" recommendations for replacing the 6x9 subwoofers underneath the rear deck.

Hey Dave, unfortunately I don't have much first hand experience with the rear deck 6x9's. It was either in my e36 or the first build of my last e46 where I bought some speaker adapters to mount 6x9's inplace of the 5.25 or 6" rear deck speakers that fire into the cabin but I think those were the full range ones. I've always gone with a dedicated sub-woofer in my trunk and in the last couple builds I didn't run any speakers in the rear, only front stage.Quote:

Welcome. No doubt this is a very mature forum. Uber nice people.
Car is sharp.
Glad an audio specialist for the e46 joined in.
Welcome aboard, Natban. Car looks pretty clean. I've done a few E46 audio builds and found that the Rockford Fosgate 6" speakers work well for a retrofit. I took apart the OE speakers and used their brackets to mount the Rockford speakers. It's been a long time since I've done it, so I don't have any pics for you.

Thanks Static. I'll have a look at the RF's. My other option is to use a set of 3-way Eclipse speakers (sc-8365)I kept from my last E46. The mids and tweets fit nicely into the stock HK door locations but the 6" driver is a real mess to fit into the door. Not sure yet. Been busy with the mechanical side.Quote:
