Herb,

Are you still selling the car? Are you replacing the mids under the seat or just adding an amp?

I have successfully added a mono amp for my sub box (dual 10 inch subs). It basiclly the same box I had in my previous car (g35 coupe). I did however used a different amp (since I don't plan on upgrading the factory speakers). Current setup is a Rockford Fosgate Mono Block amp (Punch P3001) 300 watts RMS, going to 2 10inch Rockford Fosgate subs. The sub box is a qlogic type 1 (.65 cubic feet per sub). I'll try to get some pics online as soon as I can.

Also, the trunk in the 5-series is very well sound insolated (well at least the ones without the fold down seats, can speak for the ones with them).
