That is correct you do not have OEM Tweeter Mounts(or the tweeters there). Our upgrade will not only replace your 4" speakers currently present but we include the trim pieces, mounts, brackets etc to mount tweeter. Of course we include the tweeters as well.
So Base Audio you will receive both the midranges and the tweeters. And the pieces to complete the install.

Alas, I missed the sale, so I'll keep my originals (or give Crutchfield a call).
$170 increase in price the day the speakers FINALLLYY get here is a cash grab, if you ask me.

The 419.99 was a "Pre-Order" price. IE you are getting a deal because you are placing your order before it is made available. We have done this on almost all of ours products. For instance our new d110.e46c/s was 499.99 during the pre-order phase. The standard pricing is 699.99. We are not doing it as a 'cash grab' but simply allowing those that are interested to get a better price as an early adopter. Many users here and others took us up on that offer. Their packages are leaving out the door tomorrow.
I would be wary with crutchfield. Their 'fitment' guides on a vast majority of BMWs are simply wrong. Many of their reps will have potential customers call me or BSW. If you wanted to go with a different solution and wanted to bounce the idea off me I would be happy to help. We don't just provide support for customers buying our products. We are here to help.
I understand your frustration on the pricing front. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to PM me.
