Any comments appreciated...

I have the Morel 4" Hybrid Ovation in my M3, and they sound great for their size. I don't know how they compare with the Focal 100KP, however in the 1- and 3-Series in particular the 4" mid should have some mid bass, at least go down to 80-100Hz IMO, to complement the underseat woofers.
The Focals lower frequency response is only 120Hz, the Morel is 60Hz and that's a big difference especially if you are getting a processor to tune your system. That lower response will allow you to tune the mid bass response more aggressively with the Morels depending of the soundstage that you are looking for.
