Land Rover Defender speaker upgrade, generation by generation.
Radio King does speaker upgrade on every Land Rover Defender generation we see: L316 Tdi / Td5 (1990–2006): Door pods or dash-top speakers replaced with weather-tolerant units and new wiring where there was none; a small amplifier under a seat; L316 Puma (2007–2016): Dash-top and door speakers replaced with plug-in units on the Puma's own mounts, tweeters added up in the A-pillars, small amplifier under the seat; L663 (2020 on): Plug-in speaker upgrade for the standard system; Meridian cars keep their amplifier and get better mids and tweeters on the original mounts. From €200. Send your reg and we confirm the route and the price the same day.

FAQ
Land Rover Defender speakers: questions people ask.
Answers for Defender owners. Something else? Message us on WhatsApp — we usually reply in under 5 minutes.
Ask on WhatsAppHow do you improve the sound in a classic or Puma Defender?
The cabin is noisy and the original speakers, where there are any, are small dash-top or door-pod units. We fit better speakers in the same positions, add tweeters up high in the A-pillars so voices are clear over road noise, and run a small amplifier under a seat. Door and floor soundproofing helps as much as any speaker on these trucks; ask and we quote both.
How much does speakers cost on a Land Rover Defender?
It depends on the generation. L316 Tdi / Td5 (1990–2006): from €200; L316 Puma (2007–2016): from €200; L663 (2020 on): from €200. Fitting is done at our Dublin 11 workshop — send the reg and we confirm the exact price before you book.
Which Land Rover Defender years can have speakers?
L316 Tdi / Td5, built 1990–2006 (Single-DIN radio in the dash pod or centre console, no screen; many trucks had no radio at all when new): Door pods or dash-top speakers replaced with weather-tolerant units and new wiring where there was none; a small amplifier under a seat. L316 Puma, built 2007–2016 (Single-DIN Land Rover CD radio in the new centre dash, no screen): Dash-top and door speakers replaced with plug-in units on the Puma's own mounts, tweeters added up in the A-pillars, small amplifier under the seat. L663, built 2020 on (Pivi Pro 10-inch, 11.4-inch on later cars; CarPlay and Android Auto standard, wireless on most cars after software updates): Plug-in speaker upgrade for the standard system; Meridian cars keep their amplifier and get better mids and tweeters on the original mounts.
How long does speakers take on a Land Rover Defender?
Two to four hours depending on how many speakers are changed on the Land Rover Defender L316 and L663. You can wait at the workshop or drop the car in the morning and collect it the same day.
What stays factory when you fit speakers on a Land Rover Defender?
On every Defender we work on — L316 and L663 — the factory head unit and amplifier stay; speakers go in on plug-in adapters, so nothing is cut and it can be reversed.
Do I need to book speakers for my Land Rover Defender, and is there a warranty?
Yes — send the reg or the year and generation (L316 and L663) on WhatsApp or the form below, and we confirm the route, the price and the next free slot. The work carries a one-year warranty, and the workshop is in Rosemount Business Park, Dublin 11, Monday to Saturday.
