Nice DIY! Congrats!
I don't know whether its just me or the fuse is actually set close to the amp. Isn't it supposed to be put near the battery? I think it is mentioned in the manual also. Please cross check.

Hi, could you please tell how that would make the speakers sound better?

The mdf spacers are inside or outside the panel?

It is a good thing you got the midbasses installed from outside the door. It does make a substantial difference in the Swift.
