The original FAST Rings solves the problem of acoustically coupling aftermarket speakers to factory speaker openings. It’s a laser cut foam product with industrial-grade, peel away adhesive backing. Get all the sound you paid for! Increase mid bass & reduce panel vibration..The rings separate into three pieces. The first FAST Ring is a dedicated gasket for speaker mounting to the baffle plate surface. The second ring mounts around the outer edge of the speaker, just past the surround. The third circular foam pad goes behind the speaker to absorb unwanted reflections on hard surfaces, such as inside a car door.By using the 3-ring approach the kit improves the projection of the audio into the car cabin and reduces unwanted rear reflections that can degrade the sound.

$300-$400 and having a shop install will not get you much. So I would try to DIY as much as you can. With it being so new good there will not be anything out yet to replace the headunit so we do not have to worry about that. Do you have component speakers in the front or are they coaxials? If you have components you could some Morel Maximos a 2 channel amp such as the Phoenix Gold. You definitely want to do some sound deadening as that will improve Midbass response. You can start with Fastrings and CLD, and add from there if you want. All of this with a decent amp kit will put you around $400.
You are going to have to measure the existing speakers to see what size you have and the depth you have to work with.

Or do fast rings
Skip the rear, put Hertz dsk 6.5 components up front.
A wire kit and amplifier , bridged into 2 channel
Fast rings
sound deadener like so
If you're feeling adventurous, pull the seats and put closed cell foam mat under the entire floor. Lots of road noise complaints about the CRV.
I'd skip the rear entirely, and I would never put coaxials in the front and then add tweeters.
here that should work
The foam rings are called Fast Rings. If you've already got the door apart, they aren't much added cost, and can help some. https://www.amazon.com/FAST-Rings-3-Piece-Speaker-Enhancement/dp/B016LFVKHY
Try running your current vehicle with the fader turned all the way to the front, so the back speakers are off, and see if you can live with it for a week. Some don't notice, others find the lack of fill in the rear troublesome. It's personal preference.
I've had good luck with the Rockford Fosgate Punch series of co-ax's. I also strongly recommend applying a small amount sound deadener (Noico from Amazon is good and cheap) around the area you are installing the speakers and a foam fast ring kit around each speaker. I have went this route on a couple of factory systems and it made a major improvement - all of these upgrades should be within your stated budget.
