There are two plastic tabs that stick out over the front lip of the mid-bass drivers. You'll just need shave these tabs flush with a razor blade (quick but dangerous) or a file (slow and safe and recommended).

Then pry around the lip of the speaker to separate the glue holding the speaker to the housing.

Then flip the speaker housing upside down and tap the magnet with a hammer to break the speaker free, sometimes it takes a good wack to do the job.

Hope this helps and be careful shaving the tabs and don't cut yourself if you use a knife.

My main issue is having a shop do it that I can trust and I really want to go to a shop that has an idea of how to install the stage 1 upgrade...


I'm afraid of rattling 6 months down the line and having my door panels falling off lol.......

I "think" im handy being a contractor lol but I still have a gut feeling im going to mess it up somehow.....

ARE THERE ANY DECENT SHOPS OUT THERE THAT HAVE DONE THE STAGE ONE UPGRADE IN THE NYC AREA? I am willing to travel quite a distance to have it done RIGHT!

I really want to do it! I mean like tomorrow!

BTW- do we get a group buy rate?

I have a 2003 X5 business cd radio...

Hey Halston,

Can you PM me the details for a Group Rate? I am very much interested in getting the Sub installed.

Thanks,
