Why Focal? They seem way too expensive for what they are.

A few suggestions...

Get rid of the 6x9s, you've already got a whacking great sub for bass and good quality components for mids and highs.

Power caps do naff all, waste of money.

How heavy is that sub? You may need some pretty beefy bracing to fit it into the rear seats. Also bear in mind that the rear seat is structural, cutting it too much could weaken the shell.

What's the total RMS of the system?

Just move the woofers and tweeters to the front...

Where's the sub going? If it's in the boot and as powerful as you say it'll destroy those speakers on the rear shelf.
