So I got the European stock sound system which totally sucks ass, and there is no way to replace it cause everything is hot-wired into the main on-board computer.
I was thinking of installing a completely separate sound system - maybe into the glove compartment or something.
What do you think could be done about installing a custom sound system?

But ya the E60 can be a pain to work with according to my audio shop. I have all my aftermarket speakers connected through a JL Audio Cleansweep and it sounds great in my opinion. definantly does not sound stock

I have tried not to chop the car much but in certain aspects you will have to make some cuts do to size limitations.
