On to the good stuff.

We need cars for product development ALL the time.
This will be a constantly updated thread with a list of cars we currently need for development purposes for testing new products, improving instructions, recording install videos, etc.

In general, we will give the product we are testing away FOR FREE in exchange for being able to keep the car for 1-3 days for testing, etc. This will vary on a per-product, per-car basis depending on the status of the product, but we will ALWAYS make it worth your while.

So, here are the cars we need, and what for.
If you have one of these cars and you want the product (or something else we offer), contact us (http://www.bavariansoundwerks.com/contactForm.php).

E46 Coupe, Sedan, or Convertible with HK
- Test new version of a midbass speaker. You get a free pair of upgraded front midbass drivers. We need the car for 1 full business day.

E46 Coupe, Sedan, or Convertible without HK
- Test new version of a midbass speaker. You get a free pair of upgraded front midbass drivers. We need the car for 1 full business day.

E46 Coupe, Sedan, or Convertible built after 03/02
- Test new version of a bluetooth phone kit, which you get to keep. We need the car for 2 full business days.

This is our current "priority" list. If you have an E36, E39, E90/91/92, E60, etc. we may need your car for testing as well.

If you are interested, please post in this thread or contact Halston Pitman (404-963-8857 x 104, rhp@bavsound.com, PM: Halston Pitman). Please DO NOT contact me as I am not managing coordination of installations, etc. BE SURE to provide vehicle build date, model and body style, audio system type, and Nav / Non-Nav.

Hey Micah... Its been a long time! :)

I'm in my twenties, have a small business to run, and single in a city with a near 2:1 girl/guy ratio. What can I say? I'm a busy guy! :D

Yes, but we didn't have the new parts already here to test. :)

Didn't want to pester you, but if you wanna bring the car back, you're welcome to the same deal as everyone else!

Geordie:

Give me a call on my cell again if you want to jump on those 2 since you are extremely local and we can get your very back in here and work out the details.

Sending a PM.

I have an E46 M (05/2005 production) and I live off of South Atlanta Rd and Church St.

I have an E36 M. If you need it for anything, let me know. I'll find something else to drive.

Sending a PM.

Sure is taking a long time. ;)

I actually am about to add a free product for the e36 :) Stay tuned!

Would a E46 wagon with HK work? ? ?

BTW, do you ride with R Kollar? Noticed a ipod dock in his S4 and thought he mentioned your name.

Man...I sent a message via the website within 5 minutes of the original post. Hope I didn't miss out.

If you're "in" we will let you know.

95m3Lightweight: I don't cycle, but my business partner, Jason, does, and he used to ride with R. I've met R. Interesting guy. :)

anything for E60's?

E36 M3 Sedan, need it for anything? I need a new sound system. I have JL stealth boxes, stock speakers, and a Kenwood deck.

i just wanted to quickly vouch for the guys at BSW. i was lucky enough to get in on the last feebe for door speakers and its amazing :)

anything for E60's?
Yes:

We very well might. I am compiling my full list to see exactly what we need.

This is a coupe I am assuming or convertible?it's a coupe. butt-ass stock with HK, as well.

Just let me know, there really aren't any decent sub woofer solutions for the sedans.

e39 '97 540i Pleeeeeese :)

I will have the list of the older cars and what we need here shortly.

X5? I needz more tunes.

What if you have an aftermarket head unit?

X5? I needz more tunes.

You have DSP correct? We need to do a Stage 1 I believe in that vehicle. Maybe even the subwoofer.

What if you have an aftermarket head unit?


That would not matter for most of the products.

I am working on the list to post tomorrow morning. Check back and see what we have for each car.

DSP, no Nav.

Let me know when.

Excellent!

Still in need? I just saw this post.

2003 E46 M3 Coupe with HK. Everything stock (inside and out) except DICE with the 2.5 cradle.

Everything stock (inside and out)
you need to work on that, Jorge.

Halston, I finally ordered the upgrade speakers from ya'll. Came in a few days ago.

I have a 2004 330Ci w/ Harmon Kardon depending on what day you need it. I could give it up for a full business day. Just need to know in advance so I can plan for it. Might also be able to give it up for 2 days for the bluetooth. Also, just need to know the days so I can plan ahead.

Only thing different from stock is the passenger door. Has a modified speaker bracket which is currently holding a 6.5" MB Quart woofer in there. Also the 2.5" speaker in the door is no longer and has a 1" MB Quart tweeter in its place. All of which can be removed if you like. Only thing that cannot go back to stock in the 2.5" speaker as I had to cut it out of the bracket. Also the crossover is mounted in the door but also can be removed.

Driver side door is still stock with H/K as I got lazy.

No Nav here.

you need to work on that, Jorge.
NEVER!

The only things I want on my car are legitimate performance upgrades (and there are vanishingly few that aren't in the "couple hp for thousands of $$" category) or CSL rims. After that, I'm not interested in adulterating my masterpiece auf Deutschland.

The stereo is another story.
