Does it blocks your rear view a lot?
I appreciate safety but I don't get this line of thinking. You can barely see out the back window to begin with and with the soft top once you put it all the way into the back position your view is 100% gone anyways, might as well get a good speaker out of it.

I wonder if it's something Forscan can fix? If not, I'm sure someone will find a solution.
This was my first plan but decided on the sound bar. I was thinking with changing the settings since they're not exactly high quality speakers they'll get blown easily. I'm sure there's a reason they're not tuned up right away.

I feel like I get good visibility to atleast see the cars behind me with my soft top

I think its been on the Forscan guru's to-do list for a while now, to date nothing has been discovered.

With it all the way back? Good to know, I had heard (don't have mine yet) that it was pretty much all the way blocked anyways.

same, not sure what people say about 'no visibility', at least as good as in my Taco with camper shell, except the spare sticks up a bit. I'm actually surprised on how much I can see out the back. Maybe with it folded all the way down, which I have not done yet. But still would see over it and since I'd rarely do that, it'll be no different than having a full trunk. Thought about the cameras as rearview mirror, but don't like that you can't change the perspective of what you see, neither by moving the mirror nor by moving your head. Would take some getting used to.

I'm sure someone will come out with nice pods that replace the factory ones and also saw some people using marine/boat pods instead of what's there, I think they ran the signal from the front so didn't have to deal with reprogramming or forscan. You loose the fade, but I usually have that pretty much centered anyways. Lots more to come I'm sure, Bronco has barely hit the roads.

Is the sound bar powered? It would be awesome if it was and you could swap the sound bar out for a sub since its all pre wired back there.
