Default C5 Full System - feedback appreciated

Hey everybody - I'm looking to complete a stereo build in my C5Z and think I've got the full list put together.

I like loud clean crisp audio with good range, but am not necessarily a hard-core audiopile needing top of the line everything - and hope this will prove to be a good bang for your buck system. I already have a deck in the car, that's why it's not on the list.

Those of you looking for something to do - can you take a quick glance at this setup and let me know if you see any glaring issues? My main worries are mounting depth for the door and that I have enough power coming from the 4-channel amp for all my mid/hi speakers.

I'd ditch the rockford fosgate stuff. Everything else should be OK.
