Hi all,

Recently took delivery of my 23 2 door hardtop base. Absolutely loving it. Took some of my friends out for a trip last week with the roof off but my buddy in the back seat couldn't understand a word we were saying. Is there anything on the aftermarket that could help reduce that noise? Even if I made my own mesh shade for the rear window area, I'm just not sure that would make a difference.

Thanks
Drive slower ! 🤷🏼‍♂️ 🤡

Don't have many backseat riders in my 2 door, and I know these puppies have the aerodynamics of a brick, but I'd love to cut out a bit of that noise that hits the pillar right behind the door. I wonder if there's not a solution with some kind of valance at the windshield cross member to direct the wind up and over the top a bit better.

I don't see a simple solution 'cause it would probably need to come off when the top is on.

Add the side Mole panels in the cargo area and run with the windows up. It's how my soft top is set up and makes a difference.
