I didn't get the new wheels... no need as the 8.5s I got to go square is holding air after the fix. I haven't had time to delve into that exhaust "whistle" yet. Next up is installing that Kicker sub. :rockon

I saw this and thought of you. Do you have it?

Thanks for the heads up! Funny thing is William and I were literally talking about that just the other day. I likely won't get it though, a little pricey for a minor convenience. It's pretty cool though so I'd get it if cheaper.
Heiu and a I worked all day to install my 'new', 500W Kicker subwoofer that I got for a good price from e46f.c. Many thanks again to orange260 for the advice in buying all the parts and the main components. And huge thanks to Heiu for the long day of work, in which we never even had a chance to get food. It was worth it as it sounds great.

You're welcome, Rando, and I'm happy to hear you finally got it in.
How does it sound top up, top down? With different kinds of music? How high are you setting the gains on the Kicker amp?
That Kicker amp is tiny, it looks about 1/2 the size of my Rockford Fosgate. If it's good, I may want to buy one - mine is hard to fit properly because of the physical size.
Congrats! Now you can rock the 'hood listening to gangsta rap. Or some 2 Live Crew.
Awesome John!! I bet that sounds Sweet!!
Heiu is there anything you don't know about BMW's?
Nice job on the install, you'll be thumpin' into some beach tennis tourneys now! Nice assist Heiu and Ayan (Orange...). Like it??
Thanks all! Ayan, I have yet to really put it through it's paces but it cranks. Again, really appreciated your help.
All, we muddled through using the BSW install guide and then forums for when we got stuck. Fairly straightforward, but like VANOS, it's a lot of steps and it takes awhile. Would be much faster the 2nd time. I'll post a pic of the view from the inside later. Still needs a little fine tuning on the install, etc.
