I have my radio/CD player in my glove box. Still space for a CD in the box, a garage door opener, a pair of gloves and the tire pressure guage. I didn't want to cut holes anywhere so the speakers I chose come in their own enclosure and I have used a bit of velcro to afix them to the carpet on the back package shelf. Should I have luggage I just unstick them from the velcro and move them to the top of the pile. I can also pull them out for a picnic, etc. Worked well for a good number of years. I'd post a pic, but haven't as yet mastered the art. Mark

Forgot to mention that I have a glove box that locks, and the antennae is mounted to the top of the passenger side foot well. Not terribly optimal but it works well enough. Mark

I have a radio in my morgan, it came with one. With my last one I fitted it myself, it makes the car more civilised for longer journeys.
I have just fitted a new DAB one with a remote, however trying to work out where to put a DAB ariel as they are meant to attach to the glass windscreen which I dont want to do..
Any one fitted a DAB one?

Have a word with Howard G8BCG (is that the right callsign?). I think he's fitted a few over the years...

Ah how the legislators complicatte our lives. At one time you could listen to radio stations a hundred miles away, then came FM, now DAB. All this may be fine for a fixed reciever, but for a car?

When 4G cell phone coverage is universal internet radio will be available in your vehicle. Tens of thousands of alternatives from the insane to the surreal. Radio Paradise is good. Check them out. Eclectic soft rock is the best description!

I really don't know why people say they can't hear music in a Morgan. unless we are going at more than 80, or perhaps even 100kph, we have no problem hearing the music. I can't help wondering sometimes if there is not some sort of fundamentalist Morgan taliban that believes you should suffer in order to enjoy your car Absolutely. Nothing like a spot of Led Zeppelin to accompany a cross-country drive. ...or the second movement of Ravel's piano concert in G major  To be serious, I like it to have the chance to listen to some music in the Mog. And my listening has been adapted. As I love jazz it happens to listen to the solo lines of Chet Baker or Freddy Hubbard quite intensively without getting much sound supported by the sidemen, but it is nevertheless a joy to listen to and adds to a certain positive deep mood when driving in some nice landscape. I never would expect that the sound in a Mog could compete with that one possible at a quite surround. Therefore a regular standard radio/mp3 makes it all.

Something else will come along to replace 4G before they ever get near universal coverage. Decent mobile coverage in this country is a farce. Rant over!
