Here is a thread I will update as I upgrade my audio system. For now I have done the 3 front speakers and will hopefully swap and power the rear deck speakers as well as add a subwoofer in the trunk. For the 3 fronts I went with coaxial speakers from the BMW Individual Audio system that was a high end upgrade system from around 10 years ago (3000 euro cost).
BMW used many speakers of this shape (Harmon, Logic7, Bowers and Wilkins amongst others so many many options) but some had different frame thickness to mate with door panels. The speakers that fit were either center channel dash speakers or rear deck speakers. These are the exact same frame thickness and shape as the stock Tesla speakers. There are also many aftermarket options (Eton, focal, Match, MB Quart and many others) but be careful to get ones with this slimmer frame. You will need some adapter cables to make this plug and play. Here are some pictures of the parts. If you are interested in going this route, I can make and sell you the adapter cables if you want the process to be hassle free.
And the finished product. Once you get the speaker grille off, it’s 9 screws and unplugging the old speakers and then connecting the new. Drop in, plug and play. No modifications required.
For the future, I have a leftover amp from my BMW X3, the Audiotec Fischer Match PP82DSP. MATCH PP82DSP Digital signal processor with built-in 8-channel amplifier at Crutchfield
Pretty amazing and can use a special cable and 4 channels to power special Match subs like this PP 8W-Q (quad 3ohm voice coils in one speaker)
Apparently only need a 10L ported box (less than 0.5 cu ft), so the stock enclosure may work. The extra channels of the amp will power the rear deck speakers and I will be able to custom tune the output levels to match the stock sound and volume. The amp should fit where the stock sub amp fits. I will update as I get things done. Any questions, please ask.
