my saloon has a standard stereo with just LW and MW and just the dash speakers, of which only 1 works! I dont wanna loose the standard retro looks, but i need some music! I need a more modern stereo and some speakers in the back but dont want to ruin it, can anyone help? Any ideas? Help!
Id like to keep the standard radio in the dash, or at least the facia or something

Have a look at Shaun_O'Donnells saloon >LINK (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85949&page=24)< ;)

Keep yours in place instead of the stereo blank imo.

Get a small amp, use an iPod for the audio source conect to hidden speakers, job done,

There are a couple of threads about that in this section somewhere,

If you can't find them I'm sure it was Stuart that started the one with best info, also if you have an iPod touch or iPhone you'll get an app for radio stations too

Ignore the Fli speakers - OEM grilles were still to go back on. lol
