Morel Elate 6" in E60 - Thinking of custom install

My audio setup which is working perfectly fine and sounds super good (except some rattle because of big sub in the back, ignore that) now the upgrade itch has started again and this time I want to custom install Morel Elate 6" in the door card.

As you would know nothing can fit inside the door card at stock location which is bigger then 4" in size and more then 50mm in depth. Morel Elate which is much bigger then and also very deep, a massive driver. I am not worried about cutting door card as I will get it done professionally and make sure is it mounted from front so that depth is not a problem.

Now the big question is it worth all the effort when I already have Morel Ovation I (not II) 4" driver paired with MT-23 tweeters?

Here is how full setup like:

my setup is fully amped, I have JL HD 600/4 and JL HD 900/5 running all the speakers

MS8 CH1|---------> JL HD 600/4 CH1 (Front left) ---> Morel Hybrid Ovation 4" (with MT-23 tweets)
MS8 CH2|---------> JL HD 600/4 CH2 (Front right) ---> Morel Hybrid Ovation 4" (with MT-23 tweets)
MS8 CH3|---------> JL HD 900/5 CH3 (Rear left) ---> Xtant 4" coaxials
MS8 CH4|---------> JL HD 900/5 CH4 (Rear right) ---> Xtant 4" coaxials
MS8 CH5|---------> JL HD 900/5 CH1 (Center) ---> Morel Integra Ovation XO 4"
MS8 CH6|---------> JL HD 600/4 CH3 (Woofer left) ---> Jehnert underseats
MS8 CH7|---------> JL HD 600/4 CH4 (Woofer right) ---> Jehnert underseats
MS8 CH8|---------> JL HD 900/5 CH5 (Subwoofer) ---> JL 12W6v2

E60 has airbag in the door cards if i manage to install it it will not be far from airbags, I am worried if Elate's massive coil producing thumping vibration trigger it.
