they are designed to replace a standard DIN, but come with a faceplate as the actual unit dimensions are different

Mine has come with a faceplate that looks like it will fit ok.
My hesitation is the wiring. I did a similar installation myself on Aily’s Comet but it was just 4 speakers (2 front saloon / 2 rear cockpit). Whereas I’ve remembered Fogg has tweeters & subwoofer and I think a small amp somewhere in the system. Which is well beyond my ability.
Do you think this is a standard marine sparky’s job or requires a stereo specialist?

I wired mine in myself, nothing caught fire. Just remember all wires can not be connected up at once so don't try

well done (to Matt ), my install still not finished. Did not want to communicate with the existing speakers so more $$'s spent and delivered yesterday. That will be an install job while I am away

That will be an install job while I am away Hah! Yeah ok I admit I had to outsource this one. The sub-woofer was a bit a head-scratcher, as in where does it get its power from (not obvious). But it’s all working now. Just need somewhere to sail away to (warmer than Rakino)…
