You may also not have the wiring for the sub-woofer in the boot and the tweeters in the 'A' pillar, so this is not something easily done, and probably not cheap in any case.

I've seen some very neat installations of aftermarket head-units in the existing dash slots. I think I've seen them in this forum too, so have a search around. Sure, the premium sound system is better than the standard one, but whether it deserves the title 'premium' is questionable. Even a basic setup from say, Alpine, would top it.

Posted 22/04/07 12:10 AM Share Posted 22/04/07 12:10 AM (edited) Mate, just do what I did.I installed aftermarket tweeters, JBl Sub in the rear parcel shelf, 6x9s in the bak and aftermarket 5x7's in my front.I recently bought an Premium Sound Colour TFT Screen and I now have all the attributes that Premium sound requires.Actually it sounds heaps better then the Factory Premium Sound.Another bonus is that its more cost effective then the genuine setup and "the quality" just kicks a#s over the factory setup. cheers,San Edited 22/04/07 12:13 AM by EXRLNT Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31404-premium-sound-for-bf-xr6/#findComment-524593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
