United Kingdom 1986 Defender 90 2.5 n/a Diesel HT Eastnor Green
Speakers
What are the best speakers to fit in the front of my 90, and where is the best location to mount them.

I haven't got a head unit yet, so looking at options for that too.

Many Thanks

Depends on where you would like them? I'm assuming you mean factory locations?
If so upgrade to 130mm and they should just about fit.

Many fit Focal, and are better placed to comment than me as mines not a TD5 and there is variations to the dash. Diesels Lives Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️

Hi, unfortunately mine has nothing fitted at the moment, so effectively starting from scratch, its a 1986 90

Ah I see, shouldn't be too difficult.

Hopefully someone can give you some dash reference points for cutting your holes. Thumbs Up Diesels Lives Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️

I might have the dash panels already cut for 10 inch speakers on my old bulkhead if you wanted to use these rather than cut your own?
From memory (1990) it was a simple job to cut the required holes and I think I had a small spacer on the passenger side.

France 2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 DCPU Corris Grey
In my Puma DCPU I have Focal tweeters on the dash and Focal 10cms under the dash (both like-for-like swaps), Focal 10cms in the headlining by the B Pillar, 14cms in the rear corner headlining and a Focal 2.1 20cm sub under the rear seats, all tied to a Kenwood Head Unit and full sound insulation. When I first used it, it actually made me smile. Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....
