Stealth subwoofer box for E90?
I found this online. I realize the product description says "E92 Coupe" (I have an E90 Sedan), but curious exactly what the difference in dimensions is for the battery corner between Coupe/Sedan. Why wouldn't this fit my 4-door?

The guys there are great. If you send them a message or give them a call they will definitely get back with you on the fitment for a Sedan. I have used their boxes before and they sound great, look nearly factory, and are definitely at a great price.

I just called them (should've done this before I posted ) and they are in the process of making a stealth box for the E90. It will go on the driver's side. Should be ready in about a week or two. I will be ordering one ($349) and will share my impressions...

One difference I noticed is that this enclosure is supposed to fit a JL W6. Might be a draw to some people looking to fit a deeper sub than the musicarNW enclosure can accommodate. Not sure why they are choosing to put it on the drivers side though. That occupies some useful space to mount amps and processors.
I have the musicarNW enclosure and its great. PnP is great and the fit is great. No need to bolt it down because the fit is perfect. This makes it easier for me to work on it or remove it as needed. Paired with the Morel Ultimo SC sub, its hard to beat.

Really? Whenever I make a hard turn, it goes tumbling across the trunk. I'm going to work on velcro'ing it down today, as a matter of fact.

Thats my only issue with my music car sub box. I wish it was on the drivers side so I can easily access my battery. Its a PITA to pull the plastic push pin out when you need to get to the battery. Without the push pin in, my box tumbles out too.

Getting at the battery is important, but to think the thing is going to roll across the trunk at every turn....
