Good luck with that.

It would be nice if Ford offered this for all Bronco engines and suspensions. I wonder if the sasquatch tires and 2.7 are too loud and this material would not deaden the sound.

In the jeep it is catering more to the "lux" group who don't like the look of the white inside. It has been referred to as the inside of a Styrofoam beer cooler looks wise! Ford has it in dark color already a win for them.

Except the styrofoam cooler at least looks finished, unlike the unfinished raw material mottled look of the inside of the MIC top.

Once those roof panels are installed it looks pretty finished to me. Worrying about a cut edge on a pre-pro product that you don't even see is crazy.

This looks more cohesive than what Hotheads does in the Jeep. If Hotheads comes up with something as full-coverage as Ford's I'll go with that but as of right now I'm actually liking what Ford came up with.

Not sure if it’s been said, as this thread seems to have blown up over night....

what if the factory liner has veritable depths? As if in the centers and deeper areas it is let’s say 2 inches, and then it tapers out to be 3mm just so it covers more ceiling? This would benefit the head room by not dropping down 2 inches in all areas, and hopefully still be very effective for its main cause.

Edit: looking back at the photos this looks unlikely....

Maybe get these from factory and then add on more to fill in the gap for a non variable depth ceiling in the future.

Too bad I’m getting a V6 and can’t have it.

I don't mind it. Either one. There is a video floating around YouTube that shows no appreciable reduction in sound 1-2 db, however they do reduce inside temps by about 10 degrees

Know what would really reduce inside temps? A white hard top. I hope Ford pulls the trigger on that option.

Gfs 2019 wrangler has the factory sound deadning its okay i guess it does something,im ordering without and seeing how it goes.

Even if they don’t reduce noise intrusion that much, it should still have an effect reducing echo... which should make the radio and conversations sound better, and the inside of the vehicle a more please place to spend time in general.

That looks like shit lol. And very heavy ?

I agree. Looks like Walmart quality. Probably made in China too.
