Overhead speakers
Anyone have experience installing front and rear rooftop speakers on a C300? Is the rear even possible?

I haven't got experience myself and am also curious. I'd bet money though on it hijacking signal from one of the fronts, perhaps maybe even the footwell bass which wouldn't sound good at all on the factory amplifier.
There is a small chance it hijacks the rears (and plugs in between the harness and the headunit behind the centre console, not sure how it'd work on Burmester though) which would make some sense considering the headunit can just about power a mid and tweeter on one output.

It's a pretty long *** cable to connect sound to it, might be hooking to the footwell bass.

So the front roof speaker connects to the front speaker. If you have burmester Amp or aftermarket DSP amp, could it handle the extra speaker good enough? Still couldn't find anything for rear roof speakers

Yeah, a Burmester amp should have enough oomph to handle it OK. If it's all the same though looking at those pictures and you have Burmester I'd splice it to the surround (center stage) speaker rather than the door one.
