Hello everybody...

I am about to upgrade stereo in my 3.30ci and I have several questions that I could not find an answer for so far...

I have HK system. How many speakers does it have? I have looked very hard at the front door/panel and I could only see opening for 2 speakers per side - though diagrams on BMW website imply there are three speakers per door... Any comments?

Can I buy tool(s) to help me take panels off the door (to take the clips out)? Where? Any ideas on price?

Is there a bmw shop manual I can buy that would describe in details on how to take panels off?

I am planning on using MB Quart Q series speakers and Rockford Fosgates amps to power up the system - if you don't think it's a good idea, let me know... I am keeping head unit and using adapter to convert to RCA.

Please email me if you know answer to any of my questions...

Thank you
Aleks

I looked at some pictures at http://bmw330ci.com/welcome.shtml
and it looks as if tweeter and mids speakers are located where you would expect tweeter to be? That explain having only two speaker locations...

Does anybody know the size of the woofer in doors? What about rear? I am going to buy MB Quart speakers to replace factory ones - so now I need to know the sizes...

Thanks
Aleks
