I'm thinking of installing headrest speakers. The ones I have in mind are
the kenwood advertised in the back cover of Miata Magazine for $99. How
hard is it to run the wires? Any tips?

The instructions are a little lacking on how to get the plug into the
the back of the radio. Their instructions tell you to remove the panel
under the steering column. You end upside down in the seat trying to 
push the plug into a very tight space. It can be done. I didn't know 
how to get the console loose. Now I know about pulling the center eyeball 
vents out with a coathanger or string.

As for the seats, it is straightforward. You'll need a wire hook to 
push through the foam to feed the wires to the speakers. The speakers
will fit in with a little bit of gentle persuasion to zip the covers
up. In general I like the speakers. Sometimes I wish I could attenuate
some of the treble. They can be a bit too chirpy
