I think premium sound from the dealer is trash and has gotten worse over the years. They just slap a fancy name on the speaker grill and charge you an extra $2500. Instead I took that money and did it my self. Crutchfield has no info on speaker installation for 2021 F150 so if you have questions post them here.

Rockford punch 1675s components in all four doors
JL Audio 10w low profile 300w sub under rear driver side seat in a sub thump box.

I just ordered infinity components to replace all the door speakers, and I plan on ordering the Ford accessory powered kicker subwoofer for behind the seat.
Is there a center channel on the base stereo, did you do anything with that if so?
I don’t know what I’m going to do with my tweeters yet, I kinda don’t want them visible.

The center channel is a 3.5" 25w paper cone speaker. I did not replace it yet to see if it can add a little depth but it just sounds so much worse next to the Punches so I will replace it with a kicker. I used a kicker in my 2016 F150 and it was servicable. You will want to tune the volumes to match the powered stuff.

Like my 2016 I planned on running the tweeters from the door speaker with built in crossover but when I stared messing with the door molex I decided to mount it in the door sail trim. If you don't mind fishing wire through the rubber boot you run it from there. Good thing is there is plenty of room in that molex to run wires without drilling.

I'd be interested in an under front seat sub, or a small one that could fit behind the passenger side fold down rears. Already using the space where the Kicker would go. Also curious about door speaker upgrades but not for another year or two.
