Alpine BMW OEM upgrade
Just wondering if anyone in Aust has ordered and installed the Alpine audio upgrade kit? I have an E92 325i with the base audio system which is rubbish.

I've got it in my 2010 E90 325i. Had it retrofitted by the Stealer so it would be covered by warranty and coded correctly.
I bought the parts from a BMW parts supplier overseas heaps cheaper than buying in Australia. Check on the internet and EBay - remember you need new door surrounds too for the speakers. I think it is great but I didn't pay $1,300 I can tell you. Help that helps.... |

It's not $1300, I found it on Schmiedmann for around €430 (A$625) delivered to Aust which includes the door trims for the tweeters. I think the $1300 referred to above includes upgraded subwoofers which would be an added option.

that sounds bit more reasonable I guess..can we save on delivery costs if we order as a group from schmeidmann?? does the kit not come with standard woofers?

Stock has 6" underseat subs, I now have the 8" underseat ones from higher spec'd cars with the H/K audio. It was $1300 installed for everything which was fine for me (from the dealer). And while I knew I could get the kit (no subs) for ~600 I ceebs trying to install it myself or anything. Of course you can just go aftermarket as well but there is so much range I personally have no idea what to look for.

I do have H/K speakers, I love my sound quality and tbh whatever I have in my car is not bad at all. |
