Yup home isolation made me go stir crazy.. I was on ebay and I found an old e60 center speaker for $25 so I decided might as well go with stock for the mounting angle. For the most part: The stock center speaker has a slight angle towards the driver, and it's a tight fit. If you got yourself an aftermarket, then honestly I don't know what kind of wooden bracket you would need to make to mount it right. The factory center speaker uses the SAME plug, unfortunately it's not the right end. I did test a little bit of removing the center speaker vs leaving it plugged in. I might have noticed a little more 'stereo' without the center, but ultimately it got louder with the extra center speaker. There might be an equalizer in play since it did seem not as loud as the door speakers by a fair amount. I ended up splicing the wires instead to match factory plug for plug and off I went. (okay I'm still sheltered at home so I just listened in the garage haha). Can certainly hear the difference of the center tweeter by putting a book over the top of it, so at least psychologically it'll sound better..
