 Good job - you mounted everything almost exactly the way I did. Unfortunately I cut one of the midbass wire harnesses off before realizing I could just solder them like you did, so I had to reinstall the harness and then do the soldering. My tweets went in the same way - snug fit into the styrofoam.Guess I will be replacing the rear speakers next - I noticed one of them rattling the other day while trying out my new sub. Congrats!!

Thanks. Got pics of your sub install? What equipment are you using?

Looks and sounds like you did a great job. Diamond Audio tweeters are ear-bleeding bright, they all are. I've owned them before, and that was a mistake I will never make again. They are even brighter than MB Quart tweeters.
Have you seen our stealth subwoofer for the X5? http://www.bavariansoundwerks.com/pr...I=509/_cid=196

I wanted to try something out to see how it would sound, and my CDT mids would not fit. The Diamonds fit nicely, but I have decided I do not like metal tweets. So, it looks like back to the drawing board. It seems like the crossover settings in the factory (non-DSP) are limiting the SQ by rolling off frequencies at the wrong point for aftermarket.

Bill - First off, thanks for the great write up with pictures. I wish more people would post pictures of their custom installs. Have you identified a replacement for the dash midranges?
I never heard Diamond speakers play before but I am willing to give them a try. When I search the internet I only see D362.5. I would think that they are pretty much the same as the D362.

Similar question here: I see a D3 (D362) which is a 6" component set; and they were actually the correct size?

They are a near perfect fit. I have whatever the current D3 version is; 625 or whatever. They sound great, but I think they could sound better with some clean power. I plan to install an amp at some point....
