Sina's Car Audio: Redux

[StereoInstaller1]

what year is your car? Lets see if we can get you set up with proper stock PS speakers...hell, you need the tweeter pods anyway, right?

My car is a 1991 318i/4. Build date 7/90.
I currently have a pair of Premium sound speakers on the rear hatshelf, but they wont fit right to my hat shelf. Also, they came out of a jy car, so they are probably not in the best shape..

you and blunt are the coolest people ever.

Well I'm back at it again.
Today I finally bolted down the rear premium units on my hat-shelf.
Till now, they had been unbolted, and just resting atop the hat-shelf, sliding around with turns. I had to make cut-outs in order to accommodate the premium units.

But I'm not done. My fronts are still shitty non-premiums.
I bought the one-day special speakers, but as you may know, they don't fit. ;)
I want to get clearer, and crisper sound all around, and some nice bass.
What should I do next? Below, is my new head-unit. Blaupunkt MP-36

Let me ask you this: what if you could get a sub, amp and box for $80?

Its called engineering and craigslist. Building a box isn't too hard, unless you desire perfection. And to do it right you need lots of tools (12 clamps, nice tablesaw, etc.)

Anyways..

I never said I was gonna sell you a setup like that for $80.

I asked you if you would buy one if that deal were available.

What your answer tells me is all the talk about trunk space and blah blah blah is just that...talk.

IF the fact is that you would like one but have other priorities, well DUH, right?

So, if that is the case, seriously back up and think of what you actually DO want that don't ruin your food or rent budget, and choose pieces carefully to achieve that goal.

Do some re-thinking and get back to me.

what?
$80 seems like a good deal, I wouldn't expect anything that big for that kind of money. Yes, I do care about trunk space.
