I'd love to have some pics of how you fitted speakers in. I'm in midst of
obeying the requirement the better half stated upon finding out TR was the
Glen's Marque this Fall, which was simply "Make sure its presentable". That,
my friends, is the sound of a blank check!
Currently wrestling with how to best attack the stereo situation-
Have a Blaupunk that is assumed period/DPO; cassette doesn't work, but then
again, how many of my old cassettes sound good after 10 or 20 years in the
garage?
Since the seats are shot, and they and some other interior work are planned
after Matt gets done with the tranny/mechanicals- I was thinking of just
getting Miata seats with internal speakers, rumor is they're more
comfortable, which would be nice for my wife/funding source. Seat foams and
new covers would be easier than sourcing a pair of Miata seats, of course,
and if they are apart, how tough could it be to cut in speakers to the TR6
original seats and run wires out the bottom (I know, this tempts Murphy)?
Would be nice to rig up an iPod spot, wire to the FM input on back of
existing radio, and I think I'd be set if the situation would ever arise
that I could actually hear the radio or iPod over the headers and Monza
exhaust.....much smaller fit than the other option, a CD changer with
remote.
Any thoughts from those who've conquered this successfully?
Doubt I could avoid the constables for long with the real easy solution,
sound-deadening headphones:) plugged into the iPod.
Thanks in advance,

I have a 69 and I "upgraded" the alternator from the 15 ACR to the 17 ACR
(maybe a year or two later) I installed a Pioneer CD-IB100 II deck with an
internal 50w (?) amp. I did not upgrade the alternator because of the deck
but
because my old one looked crappy and this was available for the right
price.
I put Kenwood 5 1/2" speakers in the rear behind the seats and 4 1/2" in
the
kidney pads and there is plenty of sound. I have friend who put in an amp
and it took up too much space for my taste.
If you would like I can send pics of how I put in the rear speakers. Let
me
know.
