Finally, this is sometimes considered a matter of opinion, but getting a dedicated amplifier and driving just two channels with it is going to have much better results than driving four speakers off the head unit. -- I say sometimes, because the folks who disagree with this know that they are wrong and are just doing it to wind me up.

I thought quite hard about class D amps as well...ended up buying a used JL audio 75Wx4 amp off of Craigslist and also used an old Sony Mosfet amp bridged that I had laying around. They are mounted right behind the driver's seat and every so often I reach back there and they are cooking....so in the winter I'll just consider them electric heaters.....
...still thinking about class D amps.....
...and I hear you on using the Mosfets in the head unit....I haven't bothered in decades. Two pre-outs and maybe a sub out are minimum requirements for me.
