    The Harman Kardon amplifier is located behind the left rear quarter panel trim (in the trunk opposite the battery)

    i assumed you had a H/K system... though :hi:

      For some reason I always thought it's under the passenger's seat....Could be a childhood memory from an ICE modded car..

              I think the wiring is soldered to the HK amp, but I'm not sure. I don't think they've plugged them in the amp...

                it is possible...

                http://www.x5world.com/articles/x5/s...ctory-amp.html


                there are several links on how to bypass/substitute the amp.
                .
                If i were in your place i would buy a used amp from sharjah all e46 coupes with h/k system should have compatible amps

                      ^ we can ask my cousin when he comes back from his short vacation.

                      yeah in the driver's side but in the trunk area correct?
