Q: Anyone ever install or own a BMW Z4 with subwoofers in the trunk?
I have on 04' Z4 and would love to put some subs in the trunk to fill out the sound. I have never put a system in a convertible and am worried it will not produce good sound with the top up or down. The factory system pretty much rocks as is, but on certain songs with lower bass tracks the factory woofers can't produce. I have looked at both end of the spectums as far as what to put in: was looking at 2 10 inch JL audio W6 V2, with amps, crossovers, etc. I have also looked at just throwing in a 10' amplified bazooka tube. Any thoughts?

A: Hey man forget the amp tube. All you need for a car like that is 1 10" t1 sub in a 3 foot box , with a 700 watt amp. Thats sure to be setting off car alarms as you roll by.

Q: Which is more effective on the BMW Z4: a glass or a mesh wind deflector?
My fiancé recently purchased a BMW Z4 that came with a mesh wind deflector. He prefers the look of a plexiglass wind deflector better, but I'm concerned that it won't be as effective as the mesh deflector in keeping wind out of the cabin. Based on PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, which did you find to be more effective?

A: There's no doubt that the glass is a better deflector. Your also gonna get less noise that way. The mesh is designed to let a certain amount of air pass through, and that will increase your gas mileage but only very slightly. For the comfort and peace, go with the glass.

Q: What makes a Bmw Z4M roadster better then a Bmw Z4 roadster?
One is more expensive then the other and I want to know is there a big difference in them?

A: The main difference in the Z4M and Z4 isn't really the question, about the only thing that is the same is the body and interior for the most part. The M is BMW's motorsport line meaning that the Z4M is pure performance high performance S54 engine 333hp, bigger brakes, better suspension, very much a track inspired car. The Z4M is less road friendly due to the suspension setup, less fuel economical, higher cost to maintain after warranty. The Z4 is still fun to drive and recieves very good fuel mileage while it gives a more comfortable ride but still handles and performs like a BMW.

Q: How do you remove the headlamp assembly from a BMW Z4? Xenon 2003 3.0i?
Need to replace right side headlamp assembly. Do you have to remove the right front tire and go through the slpash guard? Can you just remove it from behind the cowl inside the engine compartment? Can I swap in a non Zenon (halogen) assembly and convert it to zenon with parts from my broken zenon assy? Thanks!

A: zct is right i m a BMW tech and we use the DIS system to relieve the capacitor charge before working on them, don't get me wrong you can do it you self very carefully, but it seems like you don't have much experience if you don't even know how to get it off, just please be careful it wold be a hell of a way to die.
