Cool... Looks like a clean install...
Tough that MB its ridiculously heavy for the power it delivers!!! My JX360/4 delivers more power @ 4 ohms (70w vs 60w) and the same at 2 ohms (90w x4) and only weights 20lbs... Perhaps being the MARINE edition of that MBQ makes it more heavy? 52 pounds its insane for a speaker amp but w/e..
And! Those tweeters aren't ideally installed under the arm rests.. Pulling your soundstage too low...

2 MTX subs are just something i had kicking around i was thinking of the Pioneer Ts-W3002d4 12 Inch running at cross over with 2 Ohm but then i taught again. I have one of these in a Suburban and it pounds way to hard even for that truck so i settled for 2 10 inch MTX's
PS: Suburban sub is working at 35% of full potential.
3 Pictures are taking of my phone i can upload more later i just wanted feedback on what i have.

He could just get a new set of standalone tweeters to install in their place

If you relocate the tweeter It will sound wayyyy nicer.
