Speakers in a Vintage Speedster

I took the car to have speakers and an amp installed under the dash. I was told that they couldn

i put mine in a suitcase.

ebay motorcycle amp - iPOD input and i'm done. sounds good too.

COOL!

Are the 6" apeakers in any type of box or enclosure? I have had 6" speakers in my old del Sol in the past and they sounded amazing. In an enclosure with a decent amp they should be more than enough for a speedster.

If I could start from scratch, I would install in the door panels but keep the panel leather covering them. I would perforate the leather to allow for sound.

Why not a good quality set of home pc speakers, they're self contained and small enough to mount above the 2 x 2" horizontal dash brace.

I've gone for the kick panels...........5 1/4's. It does involve cutting the kick panels and making tubs in the wheel wells, but it's 100% stealth.

My beetle was done like this and the sound was awesome.....

i found some speaker pods on ebay, so i could place them under the dashboard out of sight

Murphy, I just put my speakers through the wall-carpet in the foot-wells. Most speakers are quite shallow and fit easily there. No metal cutting required, just the circular hole in the carpet! Yes, sound-quality probably isn't as good as it could be ( I should imagine in the doors would be best), however realistically, your ability to hear/distinguish 'good' sound is pretty limited at +70 mph in a Speedster with the top down!
