I am looking at buying a Z3MCoupe and I enjoy my music.

I am aware of the HK upgrade option but I don't want this to be a constraint on getting 'the one' so can anyone recommend a decent speaker system that will be easy to fit after market if I end up with the business sound pack?

There is obviously a specific space for a base speaker in the boot - does anyone know if a non HK car will still have the wires to plug a Sub in to the system? What size is this sub?

as always thanks in advance for your knowledge.

cheers,

Markus

Standard sound and HK upgrade both sound crap....if you want decent sound you'll need a pro install of some type.

If you get some decent components fitted in the front with an amp then you might not feel the need to put a sub in a car as small as the Z3 coupe.
Have a chat with a decent installer.
Car Electronics Leicester is not too far from you - speak to Paul, or Auto Audio in London - speak to Greg

As has been said, there is no point wasting time and money fitting the HK stuff.

Alpine do a bespoke speaker package for the 1 series which you can order from BMW dealers. May be worth asking if there is something similar for your car.

Thanks for the heads up guys, worth knowing the HK isn't that special.

all valid points - especialy the exhaust upgrade!!
