If Prop thought he had OCD, wait till he sees how OCD these dash and rear midranges will look - the Fountek drivers are the perfect size! and I should be able to retain the OE clips on the housing for the capacitor and wiring -
I have to do a bit of dremel work tonight or tomorrow but will get some updated pics up soon, these will look fantastic when finished - the factory speaker came out perfectly easy with a tiny screwdriver and a utility knife to cut the glue holding the magnet, the plastic factory mount is 100% intact as of now -

AWESOME news. I'm waiting patiently (not waiting patiently).
NOW, how do they SOUND is the question? Have you had a chance to hear them yet?

Haven't hooked up yet but the materials and construction being better quality I have no doubts they will sound better than the factory drivers. The Memphis PRX275 have a paper cone and sound better than factory, these Fountek's will definitely exceed the OE drivers in my opinion - aluminum cone and nice rubber surround and neodymium magnet.

I've got a pair of Founteks coming for my E46 upgrade in the front doors.
Thanks for the research RB and thanks to Prop for the guidance on the E46 upgrade recipe Mike

A little more progress. This has been a lot of fun so far! I'm definitely getting another set of these for the rear midranges as well

the more I think about it, the more I feel the factory speakers are superior.
they were put in for a reason and shouldn't be messed with guys. Shame on you for spending money and time on this so called "upgrade". (on the phone with parts xpress.com - " yes, I'd like to order 4 new FR58EX please STAT)
