Front Door Speaker Install

[ChristianMH]

Hi all, I have a t350c with only factory fitted rear speakers which sound awful and which I can barely hear even when idling in traffic if I have any luggage. I would like to upgrade these and install speakers up front (ideally in the door panels). Can anyone recommend someone who can do this in the South East?

I've read through most of the forums and there are lots of examples of people doing the installation themselves but hardly any mention of installers.

The only recommendation I've found is Carl Baker which I'm considering but he only does full system installs of top of the range speakers which is very pricey (esp. given I only tend to listen when sitting in traffic!).

Thanks!

Thanks for the recommendations. I've spoken to Dave and Audiofile and both seem willing to do the full job - now to decide how much I'm willing to pay and what hardware! Seems you can spend an awful lot on this stuff. Anyone got a good 3-way system (e.g. Carl Baker standard) and sports exhausts? Is it even worth it?

Most of the cost seems to be modifying and re-trimming the door cards to take speakers and adding wiring if necessary so it seems may as well go for decent speakers! The only cheap option would be to just upgrade the rears but I think that would have the least impact given they are completely blocked by luggage...

If I had time, equipment and sufficient skill would have definitely tried to go down the DIY route like most people here seem to!
