get a sub and speakers and put them in the boot o and don't forget the amp to power it fit all to a box and u can take it out n in when not required :thumbsup::thumbsup:

You could always buy a set of second hand door cards, use them, and when you want just unhook the wires and remove :thumbsup:

If you get decent 6x4's for the front door cards and 10cm speakers for the rear parcel shelf supports it will be a lot better than standard and will look standard...

Thanks for the comments I still dont know what to do i dont want to put boy racer boxes in the boot (No offence)would like an unobtrusive system really maybe something under the seat might well be an Ipod effort though Ill just have keep hunting around unless someone has had a stereo and speakers put in that you cant really see

If you just dont want to see the system you could go the stealth shelf route. Basically get a spare parcel shelf, or make one yourself, then cut the holes the correct size for the speakers and or subs you intend to use. Mount the speakers and what have you underneath the shelf with the speaker cone facing into the hole you've cut. then cover the shelf with a suitable material/fabric to match your interior. hey presto, invisible sound system :thumbsup:

You can buy oldskool speakers from ebay that dont require holes to be but you just use the brackets supplied to fit them in which only requires 2 very small screw's (self tappers) to be put in.

 

Thats what i did on my Escort and it looks fine :thumbsup:

found a site based in america that makes retro looking modern radios(does that make sense) it is called retrosoundusa.com and they make them to fit the capri as well seem a little pricey at $280 but would be neat in the dash as no cutting involved at least for the radio ,anyone over here got one already
