I know for a fact the stock speakers in my e30 will need upgrading but has anyone managed to amp theirs?

This would involve getting the wiring from inside the doorcard to inside the car, but i don't want to do this is drilling is needed!

The only speaker in an e30 door is a tweeter.

When I fitted aftermarket speakers I just connected the crossover to the existing door wiring for the tweeter, but ran fresh from headunit to crossover and crossover to midrange in the footwells.

Same as above use factory wires for the door tweeters, then run new ones for the kick wells

Yes my fronts are amped . Take the wires through the wires the wire block and through the rubber bit tricky but can be done. That's for speakers in the door and for speakers in the footwell as well
if there wern't people like me,
with cars like mine,
who would you put down to make yourself feel better?
