Recently sold an air rifle n scope, and put the money into upgrading my sound system in the disco..
I had a result on ebay and got me a 12" sub box and a 1000w amp cheap, and then got 3 pairs of speakers and all the wiring kit.. Its been a right hassle wiring it all up, but I have just finished it, and wow, what a difference its made. I only had 2 four inch land rover speakers before, in the front doors. I upgraded those to Edge ones, then put some six inch Edge ones next to the rear seat, and put some six by nines in the rear pillars, which along with the sub, are driven off the amp..
Ears are ringing a bit now..
I am well chuffed :0)

You really have done "the works" on that Disco of yours Rob.

Looks good, and I would wager sounds even better. Nice work fella

Cheers guys.

The subs look very flash but are really easy to do.

No pics, it didn't happen right.. I will get some today.

Nice set-up you got there chap. I like the way you did them subs, I might have to do something similar. I just got a dirty great box in my boot at the mo.
What speakers did you use on the rear pillars..? They look like 6x9's like I got, but I had to pack out my speakers cos they would not fit in there, and it doesn't look too good.

They are Sony Xplod 6x9s. Don't remember wattage or model number. Everything else (apart from the subs) is Sony Xplod too.

At least you`ll be able to hear your radio at motorway speeds with that set up

Sub box with amp on top. I have a 3 door disco, so the amp won't go under the seat.
I am going to box in all the back at some point..

New front door speakers..

New speakers fitted next to rear seats.. I will hoover it out if it ever stops bloody raining.

Rear speakers fitted in the pillars.. They look crap and I am not sure how to make it look better cos they needed packing out to fit in there. Any suggestions..?

Just cut round the wood to shape of speaker and paint black.

Totally. Might weigh a tad more in the rain though.
