The front steel bumper and skids might be worth it, but without actually seeing them it’s hard to say.

I think a big difference that the B&P doesnt spell out is which of these accessories are the DIO installed ones, vs factory installed, vs buy at the dealership and still have to pay for installation. If the lights and winch include the installation, its a lot more understanding of the price. If the ARB compressor is just a box thrown into the vehicle, makes sense it is more inline with what is available elsewhere for the same thing.

A lot of those dealer accessories seem to be missing, like the tailgate table and different color handles and such.

What do you guys think about the price of the sound deadening headliner? $495 seems pretty steep for what probably amounts to foam squares that stick on the ceiling.

Is the $400 bag for the doors worth it? I'm an October reservation so I feel like by the time I get my bronco the market will have alternatives but I'm not sure if $400 is reasonable or not.
For $400 I’d be throwing old sheets on the doors and calling it a day?

No. They are not.

However, some of the price you're paying is to reduce hassle, get factory installed options and have it all covered by warranty.

Generally speaking, and this is mostly the case with Jeep as well, aftermarket is going to be the best bang for your buck in 90% of the cases.

That being said, some of these mark-ups are egregious. For instance: You can buy a high quality all-inclusive heavy-duty recovery kit that includes everything you need including the air compressor for the price of what Ford is asking for the ARB compressor.

The locking lugs are about %300 over market, and again, you can find high quality at lower price online. I suggest doing that with the locks.

I, myself, plan to defer a lot of these accessories for the after-market.

Looking at the picture, it seems like the headliner is a bit more robust than just some foam squares. It seems like it's some kind of coating that is on the entire underside of the top.

My understand it's the vast majority will be DIO with no additional charge from what you see on B&P

Winch and lights are horrifically overpriced because of installation costs. Other than that, things like the bimini tops are surprisingly reasonable

$600+ for (I'm assuming two LED pod lights) that mount to your mirrors is INSANE! I'm absolutely sure the aftermarket will have better options than that.

I’m confused why I cant get it on a BD with Squatch package... makes no sense. I think the price is fair, oh course cheaper is better lol

Exactly way too high priced but thats always been the way of the dealer .
Get big stuff like lockers from dealer all the other will be aftermarket.

The tow hitch seems over priced. $595 just for the 2in receiver? Seems a bit much

Isn't there also wiring included for trailer lights?

Does anyone know if the sound deadening can be transferred over to the painted hardtop? I wouldn't want to spend money for this on the MIC and then have to spend on it again for the painted modular top.
