unfortunately you picked the wrong type of speaker for the sealed small enclosure you've put it in. I have a bmw e38 and it came with some nice quality Nokia speakers from the factory, I still use them but I gave them a lot more juice trough an amplifier and cut off any low end frequencies and the bass is handled by a dedicated subwoofer and other speakers. The e39 I believe has some rear deck speakers where you can mount woofers that will use the trunk as enclosure - which is great because the can produce awesome low frequencies. You should definitely take some vibro-dampening material and apply it to these boxes you are using - it will drastically cut vibrations as it will be a much harder surface, but nothing that you do will give you any bass because it is a very small sealed enclosure.

They go down to about 60Hz, the rear deck speakers are in plastic enclosures like these too but they're more box shaped and boomy. I plan to high pass them at 80Hz and cover the boxes in the foil backed Dynamat type stuff next time I take the door cards out as I need to install new trim clips. I would agree the enclosure is pretty small but you work with what you've got and the Nokias were distorting at medium/high volumes. These provide a lot more mid bass and do extend lower than the Nokias even on the stock amp. You have given me an idea though... What if I put these woofers in the rear deck... Hmm. Thanks for your comment. In addition, I have a subwoofer that will be going in eventually.

Oh and another thing you may be interested in, I upgraded to some BMW Harman/Kardon tweeters from a 2012 Mini as they were like £25 a pair. 1" aluminium dome. Super crisp.

Did you need to remove that entire plastic enclosure wouldn't it be easier just to remove speaker while still in door??

They are Monacor CarPower CRB-130PS, really nice build. 4 ohms, 60-5000Hz response, 30w RMS. Sadly I can't really make a judgement on them in the car as the stock head unit can't give them enough power but they sound clearer than the stock ones.
