Anyone have a set of these? http://audiosport.co.uk/rover.htm

I like the look and functionality of still having the pocket, but would be interested in hearing how well they work out before ordering. They aren't inexpensive!

I've got the Boltonbit ones in my Sprite. There are a bit bulky but line up with the original mounting holes in the door. I used some Ford Capri wiring concertinas, found on Ebay, for getting the wires into the doors.

Damn! Boltonbits doesn't do international shipping...UK only. Will have to get creative and ship to a distant relative and then over this way.

Mr Surfblue, I have been contemplating the great advice of Ruckus and adding some front speakers as I upgrade the audio. Being an MPi I can't use the under dash pods, but they look very oem on your car. :thumbsup: For the £50 they cost I'm glad to have seen a good photo of some fitted!

Just need to work out what to do with the parcel shelf then. :lol:

The don't come with the chrome strip. I went to Halfords a brought of the strips that they sell to finish off the edge and the recess.

As for the rear shelf, I have these...

...and under the seat are these, powered by a boot mounted amp.
