Sound deadening won't help if speakers are underpowered. If I remember correctly, you are still on factory HU. I'd upgrade that next. When I did my upgrades, I did HU first and immediately noticed better sound with factory speakers. Seemed to me that aftermarket HU had a better sound processor than stock HU.

Yes you remember correct. But I haven't still decide what to do next.
Of course the aftermarket HU has better sound processor. I am 100% sure about that.

But there is a big money difference between an aftermarket HU and an amp.

For the HU u need close to 300€. HU+wirings+2 din dash kit+steering wheel button adapter.

For the amp, I can pick an xplod one for about 80€ and have a proffesional to install it for me for +50€.
And then it will be a plug and play for me a pair of rear speakers.

That's why I am not sure if it's worth to give so much money for an aftermarket HU instead of amp
