Open the front hood and you'll find the place where an amp and CD player could have been mounted.

Start with the dash speakers. Odd size so you may have to make some adapters to fit quality aftermarkets. Then either head and amp or bass emphasis speakers and new door panels.
Good idea about the door panels. I see some on eBay for 150 each. Probably work on sourcing one locally for each side, from the Bay Area salvage place (Parts Heaven) that specializes in Porsche parts. I will have to be ready to run wires from the head unit to the doors.... Probably a good picture or video tutorial online about that?..... And I should check whether the head unit I have ordered has a built in crossover setting, otherwise I'll need to factor that in.

I went with this one, which I don't think can crossover between the dash speakers and the doors.
