Door panel removal flow chart:

1. Drink four beers.
2. Get screwdriver.
3. Drink two beers.
4. Scratch head.
5. Think about what's behind door panels.
6. Drive 545 around block, fast, twice.
7. Drink three beers.
8. Drink a beer.
9. Get a crowbar.
10. Go to sleep and/or pass out.
11. Take BMW to shop in morning, and tell service manager that door panels were vandalized during the night by a sleeper cell of crowbar wielding madmen.

Thanks for the info. I thought it was 5.25 stock and I was hoping to fit 6.5s.

What kind of audio setup are you running?

How did you mount the 7998 and use it with Idrive?

I met you at HID in San diego right as you were leaving. You were using an alpine remote and pointing it towards the idrive screen. Can you explain what this was.

Thanks
