Update:
as mentioned in earlier posts i wanted to remove the cap on the in-dash mid range drivers because they seemed to be crossed over too high for adequate warmth in the front stage. i did this quite easily by shorting the cap thus bypassing the filter. i crossed them over at 110Hz and i'm quite happy to report that i found the warmth and fullness i was looking for.
The setup sounds exactly the way i thought it would with these mods. Loud, clear, full, warm, and dynamic. the only thing lacking now is a multiband EQ to properly flatten the spectrum. There are a few bands in the upper range that need attenuation and some midbass bands that need some gain. The other weakness is still the sub which was already going to be addressed since the start. I'll probably pull the trigger on an Audio Control EQS since it will maintain the 6 channel control that i have at the HU. It should fit perfectly into the stock sub amp location. Being another universal component i don't mind investing in it as it'll serve well in any other vehicle i get in the future.
