Default Cosworth ice setups what you got?

My sapph is now back on the road but have a big hole where a head unit should be, standard speakers all round, have an original head unit but I'm after a nice sounding setup as I plan to be out in the car a lot, I have no idea, so was thinking 6x9's on parcel shelf and updated door speakers, maybe an amp?
Anyone have any advice? Pics?

Nice that Glenn, door cards look great, did you do them or someone build em for you?
Been thinking about the speakers in the door as I'm not sure what I can fit behind there and don't want all the sound in the back

Like that, nice and tidy, looked at loads of headunits and narrowed it down to pioneer DEH 80PRS, something similar to your setup would be nice 👍
