If you have a radio standard you will just need a wiring harness, head unit , speakers and speaker wire wire.

Harness is around e25, head unit is around e100 for a cheap one, speakers around e50 for cheap ones.

However Id buy the best Head unit I can afford, as you may want to add subs in or amps, and most cheap ones dont have many pre outs.

Im you dont have the radio as standard you will have to pay somebody to hard wire it in.

It shouldn't be too difficult, do you have a CD player that you want to install ?

I added a CD player to my 77 clubman, it really was not that hard, only thing is to make sure it has support otherwise it will skip like mad

If you need any help or advise give me a shout, or if you are up in this area i can fit it for you,

you will need
a cd player
speakers I bought these ones http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0409493205 and added a long speaker under the seat and the sound is amazing from those wee speakers
Wire, Speaker wire, power wire - red power, black for earth and another colour for key power
And a inline fuse

and your good to go.
You can also make a centre console to hold the radio print these plan in A1 and cut out the wood, simple
