95 525it Speakers

[IrishST]

Does anyone know what size speakers are in the wagon?

[Mless5]

Same good old 5.25" with some 3.5" I beleive it is mids and 1" tweeters all of which suck a big time!

Dash tweeters

#2 & #21 in diagram are 5.25" speakers (total of 4 spkrs)
#22 in diagram are 3.5" speakers (2 spkrs)
#5 in diagram 3.5" (2 spkrs)
#16 in diagram (1" small triangular speakers on the opposite side of the side view mirrors) (2 spkers)



speakers #21 (rear roof)

Speakers in the roof? Sounds pretty cool.

[JesterMX6]

yep. aside from the rattling

[atl530i]

They aren't in the sides or tailgate? It would probably sound better firing at you instead of at the floor. Unless they are over the back seats.

I was just looking at the dash speakers in my '95 Touring and I swear they look closer to 2". The might have a c/c measurement of the mounting holes of 3.5" ...but most speakers are measured at the outside of the surround.

Best thing you can do for the rear roof speakers is take em down and add a layer of sound deadening to the roof skin. I was a bit shocked when I realized there is no sound deadening back there at all. Helped with road noise as well, and got rid of the roof vibration and buzzing.

Also they don't seal up to the mounts either, there is about 1/8 inch gap all the way around them...
I only wish my front midbasses would work continuously instead of every once in a while when the stars align correctly... It's not as terrible when they do work as it is without them!

[atl530i]

Hmm. I'd take off the kick panel and fix that

When you get the time though.

[attack eagle]

Not much personal time for me anymore...

guess you read my sig... thanks for the congrats.

I was disconnecting the rear tweeters in the touring today, and they are only 1" and separate from the wonky grills.

It was bugging me that shifting the fader around also changed the tweeter level since they fire directly at the windscreen, and they really do the rear passengers 0 good

Much better now with just bandpassed midranges as rear fill.

and I also testfitted an MB quart 6.5 mid... it fits fine, you'd just lose the OEM grills, having to use aftermarket ones, and you'd have to redrill the mounting screws... if only it was that easy to 6.5 the front

that means they are exactly the same as the sedan...

5.25 x4 1" tweeter rear, 3/4" super tweeter front, some oddsized mid on the dash.
