thanks. i was hoping for more but if you've ever seen the trunk and how thick the rear wall is, you'd understand my numbers. At some point I'm going to pull the system and put it into my GF Scion xa and see what numbers it can put up.

BMW's are supposedly tough to begin with, do the rear seats fold?

I did a build with two 10w6v2 in a m3 either 98 or 99

I cutout that metal part over the rear seats, and stitched some vinyl on top to make it pretty.

Got about twice as loud from that

rear seats do not fold. Heck it's hard enough to just remove them. The rear wall is thick to help brace the car's rear since it's convertible. Also has no rear deck what so ever.

I don't want to cut since i run the car pretty hard at times. For now i will have to stick with the 9"x9" skii hole.

No video since i went alone but i will make one asap.
