Aftermarket Subwoofer for 2011 328i Convertible

bmwbear2011 · 09-14-2010, 09:20 PM

Has anyone or does any know of someone who has successfully added an aftermarket subwoofer to their convertible? There is very limited space when the hardtop is down...

I have a 10w7 but there is no way it will fit. May have to even go down to an 8"...

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I believe VP Electricity/Technic worked on a joint project to create a 10" box that fits flush in the side of the trunk...not sure if that would fit the convertible trunk, though...
