I just have the six speakers, so where would the front and rear mid's normally go that I don't have? Thanks.


The woofers front and rear are identical (160mm euro size). The rears are 2-way (otherwise BMW would say that you have 12 speakers). I believe they are co-axial components. The stock deck has 6 pairs of crossovered outputs so there is no need for crossovers.


                     6    10  HK(12)
FR-woofer (lt/rt)    x    x   x
FR-mid (lt/rt)            x   x
FR-tweeter (lt/rt)   x    x   x  
RR-woofer (lt/rt)    x    x   x -|
RR-mid (lt/rt)                   |- coaxial comp for Ci
RR-tweeter (lt/rt)        x   x -|


so, my original question still stands. the fronts i've figured out to be 5.25 components. are the rear speakers 3 way? does it matter? i guess i can get whatever and someone can make it fit? but i'd like to just get ones i can drop right in. i already purchased a set of 5.25 components..should i just get 5.25 components for the rear too?
thanks
