Harman/Kardon Sound

Being a Canadian car HK sound is standard, just curious what your corner tweeters look like by the mirrors, mine are just plain, pictures I've seen say HK on them. not sure if they made changes as I have an early production car.

Those pictures don't even look like they are from the same kind of car. Door panels are totally different.

This is it. The F80 doors look cheaper than the F82. F80 doors have a greater expanse of plastic surface (less leather). On the F82, when the door is closed, the leather of the door "connects" with the one on the dash, while on the F80, there is plastic surface in between.

OP, that is odd. You should also have the HK marking on the speakers . Almost looks like you don't have the HK system .

With the HK don't you get the extra tone settings in the iDrive? With HK you should get the equalizer. Non HK doesn't show this. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Very strange....

My car has the HK wording underneath. I took delivery of it on June 28, so its relatively early production as well.
