Hmm....there's a reason for this but what

That is interesting. I was placing orders today and noticed the headliner wasn't charging out a price.
That's pretty awesome! But - how does this get factored in for those of us who've already ordered?
@Granger Ford and @Zach@Granger will we need to rework our purchase agreements to deduct the cost? Or what?
We're paying $2390 for painted top and deadening apparently.....is it just me that is strongly considering going down to MIC?Now, what about those waiting for painted tops?
Bahaha!!!That is interesting. I was placing orders today and noticed the headliner wasn't charging out a price.
We are going to do the responsible thing and keep the savings and buy more red bull/coffee.
Thank you for your understanding.
Yes.So a modular painted hard top with sound deadening on my Wildtrak is $2390 but I can get a MIC with sound deadening for $2390 off my build price..

Great news!https://community.thebronconation.c...adliner-for-all-mic-tops-on-2021-bronco.3812/
Ford announced to dealers today that the sound deadening headliner option for the 2021 Bronco will now be standard on Mold in Color (MIC) hard tops that are matched with cloth or leather interiors, and it will be a no-cost option on MICs that are paired with Marine Grade Vinyl (MGV) interiors. Bottom line, no one will be paying extra for the sound deadening headliner.
We suspect that the reason for making the headliner optional on MGV interiors is that those interiors are focused on water resistance. The headliner was first shown off in the Bronco Nation forums here. The fuzzy, carpet-like material that is adhered to the roof is designed to reduce cabin noise and was a $495 dollar option on both 2-Door and 4-Door Broncos. For those concerned about headroom in Broncos with MIC tops, the headliner is quite thin and the effect on headroom is extremely small.
This change also applies to builds that didn’t have access to the sound deadening headliner before. For example, a 4-Door Badlands with a 2.7L engine wasn’t able to be optioned with the headliner due to constraints in Ford’s ordering and production planning systems. Now, the option is just a part of the MIC top on most trims and will be able to be added to any build regardless of other options.
