I noticed on the BSW website that the pre-order sale is still active, and the AVAILABILITY text now reads "Shipping late October, 2006." There are exactly 2.5 business days in this late stage of October, and I want my bass! -Dave

I was going to hop into the thread a little later in the day when I had more information, but here's where we're at.
About 6 weeks ago we received the final production prototype from our manufacturer. It couldn't have been more perfect. It was EXACTLY what we gave them. So, we gave them the green light to move forward with production. Yesterday, we received a sample unit of the first production run from our manufacturer (with the full batch scheduled to arrive Monday). The long and short is that it doesn't perfectly match the production prototype. It works, but not as flawlessly as we wanted. We are not going to deliver a product that's 95% there -- it needs to be 100% right. As a result, we have to push the shipping timeframe back once again. At this point, I don't have an exact revised timeframe. However, the expectation is that it shouldn't take long to rebuild the units as needed. I will be posting more information as the day progresses and e-mailing everyone who has purchased one of these systems with an update. We will also be upgrading shipping to FedEx Express Saver for everyone who has purchased one of these kits at no additional expense to make up for these delays. For the record, I hate that BSW has become yet another cliche with delays associated with new product releases. I want to let everyone know that we are VERY, VERY close, and if we weren't perfectionists could release the product to you as-is. Please hang in there; it's worth the wait! I will be back a bit later in the day.

Update 2: We are shipping amplifier + wiring to all U.S. customers today. The subwoofer enclosure + sub should be shipped later this week. International customers will have to wait until middle of next week for shipment.
awesomejun: Sorry if I wasn't clearer. The subwoofer system does not require that you remove your CD changer. However, if you want a totally stealth install with the amplifier hidden from view, you must install the amplifier in the OEM CD changer location. If you want to keep your CD changer, then your only option will be to mount the amplifier to the outer surface of the CD changer cover panel.

the amp should also fit under the load floor on top
of the spare tire cover. that's just a guess though.

Micah,
If you don't have a cd changer (which I don't) and there is no mounting system (for lack of a better term) in the left rear compartment then where do I install the amp? I looked this up on Realoem.com... http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...94&hg=65&fg=10 Looks like I would need this... Is it possible that BMW doesn't install that on basic radio equipped X5's? |

4MoJoe: If you don't have a bracket in the CD changer "area" that's not a problem -- there is surface area to simply screw the amplifier into the vehicle's sheetmetal in the same way the factory brackets attach to the chassis in that area. Yours is the simplest installation of all!
![]() broknlgs24: We haven't tested this and can't confirm. Might be possible, though!

My Account on the BSW website claims 'SHIPPING COMPLETE,' and I received and email with my FedEx tracking numbers on Tuesday. But when I go to FedEx Tracking, they tell me there's been no shipment? (Initially, the sub shipment had an Estimated Delivery of yesterday, but that's since gone away). Amps are out for delivery today, per FedEx...
