New to forum need a little help.

I have a 2011 135i convert. am looking to replace the subs under the seat and the rear side speakers. Anyone use anything other than the eatrthquake subs? also would like to know the depth of the rear speakers for possible match.
I ordered the BSW stage 1 kit for the front door and tweeter replacements. I don't know if I'm amp'd or not. I have the professional audio and am disapointed. I know convertibles are tough for sound but i've owned them in the past with way better sound. Thanks.

What's the build date on your car? The audio changed in September 2010, I believe.

Best bet would be to drive to the dealer and ask them. Go with Focal speakers if you are an Audiophile(however u spell it). But there are more ppl in the audio forum that can help u.

Thanks, markus, I found it was built in July 2010. from inside driver door. I've been hunting the audio forum. not much luck.
