The OEM amp must stay for this configuration so there would be 6 high level channels available at the harness outputs. Then you can add processors, amps or summing devices to your OEM system.

glad I started surfing the web before I let the shop start on a job. Your harness(es) whichever one you decide to meet my needs will save me a couple hours of shop time.
I have the L7 system in my 06 525xi
I'm just used to a lot more clarity in the front stage and mid bass..In my old school car thinking, amp and better front stage speakers. Then and only then would I add a sub or two.
from my brief reading, I'm lucky cause the L7 amp powers the whole system in the trunk and not from the front deck and the high level outputs and speaker runs are easily accessible in the back (again, less shop time)
I want to upgrade the system in stages
1) find the high level outputs on the front speakers and the under seat woofers....add a four channel amp to power them. the rest of the speakers will run off the L7 amp. This is a modest system so I am looking at a Clarion XR2410. it has high level inputs already, but obvious RCA's are easier. Modest power and being an old school AB class amp should sound decent and power the OEM fronts and OEM woofers.

- do you recommend a summing product like the Audio Control LC6? or will it interfere with the L7 EQ system and all it's speakers and levels to set different cross over points for the front speakers and underseat woofer?
2) change the front 4" speakers to a decent coaxial or custom component set....amp is in place already. I guess I should be changing the centre to the same coaxial/component set up now.
- not understanding the centre channel in the L7 system. I'm old school in my other car (6.25" components and dual subs + 3 channel amp - that's it!) and rarely have heard a system with so many speakers as in the L7 or know what to do.
3) then and only then will I consider a sub with a mono amp and a dual subs in custom enclosure in the wheel well (like my other car).
which harness will I need? please PM me or email me a dixon [at] gsdye [dot] com
thanks

545felix in his pics he said he got nut/washer from Home Depot.
Looks like I'm missing a bolt or screw and washer of some sort on 91 & 92? They're just empty. Can I walk into any car audio shop and purchase this or does it have to be purchased by BMW?
If anyone has specific dimension or type of bolt/washer that would help a lot.
I have all the other parts was hoping to finish up this project today but I guess not.
