[QUOTE="oreo, post: 2426010, member: 572390"] Hi all, I am trying to complete a stealth-upgrade of the ICE in my BMW 1-series and thus I intend to use the stock locations for the front speakers (i.e. DLS IR1 tweeters + MB Quart QM100MX 4" in the doors + woofers underneath front seats) and fibreglass a 20l ported enclosure for a 10" woofer in the rear (Phoenix Gold Octane R10).
