Accessory sockets
Decided to fit an extra one in the front & back.

Sourced a pair of surface mount ones from Ebay (£9.00). To fit rear I removed the rear driver's side speaker and used the spare power socket connector. Made an extension lead up and ran through a drilled hole behind where the socket is screwed to.

Fitted the front by sourcing the power from the back of the existing cigar socket, job done.

Can't work how to upload photos into here Shocked so take a look at my gallery!

Nice place to put the front one. Hmm, i wonder if the rear speaker panel would fit behind my second row of seats? It's just bear there and only have the front speakers. 130 crew cab

I put a flush one there as there is enough depth to do it
