Looking for SC300 stereo guidance

I am replacing my stock SC300 stereo and looking for some guidance. So far I am thinking of the following:

Audiobahn 5.1 Surround A5100T Amp
MB Quart PCE 216 6.5" mids 1" tweeter for fronts (could these fit?)
MB Quart PCE 216 6.5" mids 1" tweeter for rears
MB Quart PWE-254 10" Subwoofer

Any problems or pains foreseeable?

I would seriously recommend against any Audiobahn product. Look into ARC Audio 5150 instead...it is a much better unit. Besides 5.1 does not work well in cars.

Thanks for the info. How good is the current on this amp? I would like good, clean sound. I care little about having a system that has a focus on bass. The big focus should be on accuracy and crispness.

Would I need any other electronics? Caps, EQ, etc?

Whatever else you might want to add later is optional. Is your sub going to be run in the box or on the rear deck?

I was thinking of making a box built into the rear deck. It will be some work but I don't want all the sound pressure going into the trunk instead of the cab.
