Aftermarket Speaker in Fatfenders

I am hiding a stereo in the glove box of my 51 F1.


I would like some ideas on what to do about speakers and where to mount them? I am considering a couple mounted in the kick panels and maybe two in the speaker grille. Any suggestions?

I relocated my gas tank so I am going to either put a speaker box behind the seat with speakers on either end or make mounts to put them into the rear cab corners. Possibly kick panel speakers as well.

My plan is to put a speaker in each kick panel, a speaker in each corner behind the seat, a sub behind the seat, and a pair of tweeters in the original speaker grill.

I am planning on putting speakers just under shoulder level in the cab corners and piezo tweeters on the dash ends. Don't need a sub, I've already destroyed too much of my hearing. The stock speaker location is slated for gauges and the stock radio location is getting the chromed "Ford" plate. The stereo is going in a center console on the ceiling.
