What this part does
The Front Speakers are mounted inside the front door panels and are responsible for reproducing mid-range and low-frequency audio for the front cabin. They receive amplified signals from the vehicle audio amplifier or head unit. Over time, the speaker surrounds can deteriorate, leading to crackling, rattling, or distortion at normal volumes. Complete failure results in no sound output from the affected door.

Before you order
Verify whether the vehicle it came from and your vehicle share the same audio package. The BMW E39 was offered with a standard audio system as well as an upgraded DSP (Premium Sound) system, and the speakers have different impedance ratings and connectors. Installing a non-DSP speaker into a DSP-equipped car will result in poor audio quality or diminished volume. It is highly recommended to inspect your door panel's wiring harness connector before purchasing.
