How do I gain access to my rear speakers on my 1993 525I?

The ones on the package shelf? I believe you need to remove the rear seat to get the shelf cover off.

The seat bottom is held in place with two spring clips. Pull hard on the front of the seat. The seat back is held with two bolts.

While you're in there, be sure to check the battery water level. Distilled water only.

You may also find the Build Sheet under the seat, if no one has removed it.

Thanks for the response. Where will I find the two bolts that hold the back portion of the back seat? Will the seat belts be an issue when removing the back seat? Thanks again.

The bolts are under the bottom edge of the seatback. There are two tabs holding the seat.

Seat belt worst case: unbolt the bottom anchor to get them out of the way.

I got into the speakers and found the big speakers along with 2 very small ones. What are the small speakers? Since I am in there already, should I replace those as well?

I expect those would be tweeters. Many speaker manufacturers sell a set of woofer and tweeter for BMWs. I would seek a matched pair. Try Crutchfield and MB Quart.
