Looks good, but how does it sound with center armrest up?

Nice. My setup is similar. That's the optimal install position for a subwoofer in a trunk car.

No. Thats the worse place to have a subwoofer in a trunk car. Ive done NUMEROUS position tests and found that the sub must be in the trunk firing towards the license plate. Vertically, towards the car, in the car, all suck.

Sound quality is horrible and the appearance also isnt any better. E60 has a damn brick wall between the trunk and the cabin so no matter what its gonna sound like crap anyways.
