S676 to S677 swap, easy?

Hey, just creating this post to see if anybody has done this swap. Buying an E91 335i MT with everything I really want spec wise, but just now when comparing to my old E90 335i MT I see that car had S677. I thought they were the same since both had tweeters by the mirror.

Anyways, just wondering if it is a easy swap. Might be able to get every part needed from the scrapyard since that is where my old car is now...

I would say no it's not an easy swap .
And you could have something better than
Logic 7 by going aftermarket.

Seems to be popular in Europe though.

Ah okey, I guess I'll have to look at going aftermarket. Isn't it difficult though? Wiring all the cables etc.

If you already have Hi Fi it's the easiest system to modify.
Technic Harness to attach to the existing amp connector.
Amp or Amp/DSp and use some of the many BMW Compatible
Speakers now available.

Does not require any extra wiring unless you use power over 150 watts rms per channel.

Audiotec Fisher DSP/Amps recommended
There speakers or Jehnert Speakers.
Mosconi also has some nice stuff as far as dsp/amps
Gladen speakers.

There are other threads on the swap you suggested here if you want to pursue that.

Thanks! Really appreciate all the help.
Hopefully it won't sound too bad as I wasn't planning on upgrading my stereos and amps for some money the first thing I do :P

If I were to get the hifi professional DSP system for under 500$ would it be worth it? I am just afraid that the cable management or whatever is gonna be a PITA.

Realistic prices for a quality setup would be more like 1500 plus.
The existing wiring is used in all but the most extreme cases.
(High Wattage per channel)
You said you already had Hi Fi option 676.
If you don't have either you have no wiring to the Trunk .
Doing a retrofit of Logic 7 and programming the Head unit
is a bigger project as the whole wiring harness for has to be changed
and the Head Unit reprogrammed. Plus you have to source Rear
Door Panels in the same Color and material that have speaker
holes.

Logic 7 is a 9 channel 13 speaker system
Hi Fi is a 6 channel 10 speaker system

You said you had 676 or implied it in the first Line 676 is Hi Fi.
And it's not very good.
The absence of 676 or 677 is the base or stereo system no tweeters
headunit power only.(SO WHAT DO YOU REALLY HAVE?)
