BMW engineers, know nothing about anything do they?  That's why they came up
with a 10 speaker system designed to distribute the sound within the cabin
without resonances etc.

Obviously some cowboys like Transound* can boj in a systems that will sound
a lot better than original equipment ;-} LFTC!

The reality is that it is not normally worth messing around with original
equipment on a BMW - the only things I ever added were hand's free for a
portable phone in 1986 (factory fit on my current car), CB radio in 1988 and
a centre rear brake light when these became legal (standard fit on the last
two cars).  Oh yes and a little black box that sometimes went bleep in areas
of high electric field strength...

* as run by Leon Mazurek.  They managed to give one of my cars black and
crispy wiring when fitting a burglar alarm.  Mr. Mazurek has multiple
convictions, at least two of them unspent (source
http://www.hse.gov.uk/lau/pdfs/lauprosecutions0405.pdf).  The current
business of this name may be unconnected with him.

Hi all,

I have purchased an E53 X5 (2005) which will be delivered next week. It has
a 10-speaker HiFi system but would like to replace these with "Boston
speakers".

My questions are:
1] Does anyone know which Bostons speakers will fit
2] Any idea how much this will cost

Thank you for your help.
Sonny
