Default New guy needs serious audio help (kinda long)

Alright...just picked up an 01 S4 with the bose system. Need suggestions and opinions. I want to keep things pretty simple (if possible) and just want to switch the front components, rear deck speakers and get a decent amp or two to power it all. ( I really want to keep the stock head unit... for now)

1) Front speakers: Boston Acoustic 6.5 Pro's, Focal Polykevlar 165k2 or MBQuart RSD 216's I think the polykevlar's are the most expensive, but are they really worth the extra dough...and how do you fit the 49mm tweeters in? (I'm kinda strapped for cash...maybe I spent alittle tooo much for the car)

2)Can you suggest any decent four channel amps to power these and a pair of coaxials for under $350

3) Any tips or links on the install? I know I need the blaupunkt adaptor, but what else. How much should I expect to pay for an install on all this?

4)If anyone could suggest a decent install place in Toledo,OH or Ann Arbor,MI (or if it comes down to it...Cleveland)

How is the SQ with a good pair of front components and just a moderate pair of 6.5's in the rear deck? (I'm thinking about Infinity Kappa 63.3i)

Any advise is much appreciated. TIA

Default I have all Boston Acoustics Pro Series speakers. LOVE THEM!! Alpine should have an amp in your

price range. Will last long, and sound great.
