I mounted my amp and crossovers in the bottom of the front boot.

I replaced the dash speakers with Jehnerts (they are replacement dash pods, so literally swap them over, and Jehnert door pods. The pods attach to the door cards and house 2 x 160mm woofers in each side. It was much easier to fit these than to try and retrofit (I had no door speakers at all) the OEM ones, probably worked out cheaper too.

A few pics of the door pods and amp :

Wiring was easy enough with the door wiring going through the wings behind the headlights and then into the front boot through so bunged holes that exist there, then under the carpet, all nice and neat and hidden. A straightened wire coathanger with the ends bend over and taped with electrical tape was great feeding the cable through tight spaces.
