I know that there are some good DIY on this site that I found using the search function, but I honestly don't remember what they are.

I can say that you may want some foam tape for weatherstripping doors to use on the front of the door speakers where they can seal against the door panel back.

We need to search better folks before starting a new thread.

See this one.

Are you planning to go for the Bavarian SoundWerks speakers replacement kit? If yes please let us know what you think about the sound improvement once installed. Also if you can take some pics while you do the installation that would be great.
Thanks

i should be receiving my BAV kit today.
installation, i'm hoping to do one day
this week or this weekend, time permitting.
i'll let u all know.

This is actually the thread that started me looking at the BSW kit, but not that many hints, tips and tricks on the actual install.......




Yep the BSW replacement kit, i will take plenty of photos and post them up with what i think the overall improvements are.




Sounds like your kit will be delivered first, any pics of the install to help me along would be greatly appreciated, especially removing the door panels with no damage ! :)

Thanks
