If you Google "CD Changer Z4 installation" your first search result should be a link to the instruction manual to install a CD Changer. It clearly outlines how to take the panels out much better than I could describe here. I can get everything apart in about 20 minutes now, but take your time and you'll do just fine As I mentioned in my post above, the Alpine speakers fit just fine without any issue, however the OEM speakers use a 3 bolt mounting setup. The aftermarket Alpines can use 2 of these holes, but the third and fourth holes must be drilled. Very easy to do and you can always put the OEM back in without issue. Chris

am I correct to see that the price of the kit is now at $499? is this the same kit most were getting for around $259 or whatever, and was originally introduced at $299
just wondering why the price is now $499? for only 4 pieces? |

I installed this kit about a year ago and got a group-buy price of just over $200 IIRC. I also bought the additional sound insulation. Even at that price, the improvement was only marginal. I just pulled up the web site and it appears to be the same setup--2 tweeters and two mid-range speakers. At $500 it's not worth it.

Yeah, saw the price jump. Not interested anymore.
Silly question, I have heard the whole Carver/Top HiFi definition before but really have no idea how to determine this. I have the 10 speaker system in my 2006 M Roadster with Nav. What exactly are the differences and how would I know? |

So, when someone says "Carver/Top HiFi" they are talking about the same thing then, right?
The confusion for me comes in because I know a few cars also have the HiDef system. Not many, I know. Do you know if there was a difference between the '06 and '08s? I do think the sound quality I hear in the M is not as good as I recall it was in my '08 3.0i but it might be just my imagination. |
