Title: 5.25" Sony Speakers FS/FT (Knoxville, TN)
Post by: BlueBMW on January 30, 2010, 07:09:21 PM
I have a spare set of 5.25" speakers that were in the back of my 318is when I bought it.  They fit under the stock covers but I also have the covers that came with them.

Sony Xplod XS-R1343
4 way
peak power: 160w
rated power: 35w
impedence: 4 ohm

They sounded great, I just put some larger speakers in the back and I already had good fronts installed.  These should fit in the rear or front of a 318is.

Asking $20 plus a little for shipping?  Or there are a few parts I need that I might like to trade towards / for...

- Good blank check panel (w/ srs if it matters)
- Shifter console w/o window lockout button hole (if there's one that'll fit an airbag car)
- If not the above... a nice looking window lockout button
- Defroster button

Mostly I need a rear defroster switch, and I'd like to get a nice looking window lockout switch.

i  have the defroster switch in the top of my rolling tool cady/lazymans seat and ill dig thru the box of switches from the last junkyard hual and see if i can find a clean lock out switch. i dont know what it is about the lockout switches but they allways look shitty and crusty. its damn hard to find a clean used one in a junkyard.

I should probably just find a different console that deletes the switch completely.  Although I heard there are problems with airbag cars and swapping consoles.

I have an '86 325 console that deletes the power window breaker button (it's in the dash on those models).

IDK if the smaller lockout button is missing from any e30 models.  I'd take that 325e console and enlarge the hole, using it for the breaker instead of the lockout.

Problem solved...:D

Now that you mention it, all my breakers look like hell too.  :mad:

Yeah, those defrost switches are crazy expensive!  If you want to trade send me a pm with your info.

DD, I've seen a few pics of consoles without any extra holes.  I'd like to find one so I can get rid of the extra button and stop hearing "what does that button do?"

I planned on just leaving the lockout switch connected, but buried inside the console.  Its just an eyesore.

What was the original purpose of the breaker / lockout switch for the windows?  

Also, I've seen a few people use E36 window switches instead of the regular E30 ones... what's involved with that swap?
