With all the rewiring and patching, sound quality degradation is immanent.
I'm still sticking with my initial suggestion of replacing the factory speakers, and going from there. In a perfect world, you'd want to match the HU's RMS to the speakers ... but for his needs, I'm sure he'll be fine if the HU is under powered a bit.
You'll notice a pretty large change in sound immediately. The stock speakers are made of a paper composite, new ones should be of a poly.
