Not too much work. One word of caution: Check you clearance for a CD player.
I can only fit a 5 7/8" deep stereo into my '70 MGB, and that is still a huge
stretch.
Simplest thing I've seen for speakers is to place some shallow depth speakers
into doors. Maybe some behind seat. A subwoofer in the extra battery
compartment is nice, but is a lot of work. Also, fiberglass boxes for speakers
mounted to the kick panel is a lot of work. But it looks and sounds great.
I'd say for MGs, keep the speakers as close to you as possible, so they don't
get drowned out in the road noise.
