Has Anyone Only Replaced The Speakers On The HK Stereo?

I have a pre March 05 Cooper S, with the HK stereo in it, I really do not like the tweeters they put in front of those little mids in the top of the doors, has anyone just replaced the mid+tweeter in the door with something else? As far as I know the factory amp drives each pair of mid/tweet with a dedicated amp channel, is this correct? Do you know what the cross over freq is?

If I am posting in the wrong area, please let me know, I did not see an audio related section.... Thanks..

Apparently the HK Speakers are 2 Ohm, and most speakers for sale are 4 Ohm. There was a Japanese MINI2 user who connected 4 Ohm speakers to the HK amp, and claimed there were no issues, but do you think I can find that thread? Nope ...

There are some 2Ohm speakers out there that some folks have replaced their speakers with but it is the dual coil overs in the rear that will be the challenge.
