Loud speakers in a 110

I fitted a pair in the headlining of my County just in front of the roof windows - they are closer to your ears and hence work better over the noise. The headlining is strong enough to support the speakers and there is enough clearance behind it for the magnets. JD

I fitted some to the panel above the rear quarter windows, either side of the rear door, on the CSW. worked well.

The land rovers I've fitted for field work had a shelf just behind the front seats at roof-joint level, with 2 pairs of speakers, each pair right by the ears of the driver/navigator. very effective., stereo was mounted in between on the shelf along with some radio gear and a custom switch box for controlling which speakers did what and how loud. not enough room in a station wagon though, we used hard tops.

A bit too close to my hears for my taste. ;-)

Thanks anyway.

I had in mind indeed. How did you run the wires? How do you take the lining there out?

I noticed a 90 recently with a pair in the lamp cluster/wiring protection 'corners' at the back of the benches, looks quite sensible. On my 110, there's not much else there; plenty of room for a speaker magnet/cone. As for the wires, from stereo to 1st speaker along the cabin - simpler - or along the chassis; either way crossing sides underneath with the lamp wiring is possibly best.

I think the lining was on those irritating plastic things that break if you're not careful. You might need to remove the door seal or something as well, can't remember. I think I got persuaded the wiring into a bit of interior trim that runs along above the side windows, and then ran it down the windscreen pillars inside the trim there, round the corner into the bit under the dash.
