Because the hard tops are fiberglass with no insulation, adding a headliner will be the most noticeable difference. Sound Assassin is a great addition if you want to do all you can to mitigate road noise & improve thermal insulation.Hi Mark, does the floor package makes a big difference in sound insulation, or is it more the headliner/top package?
I feel like a lot of people don’t understand what they are buying here. I’m sorry for those people, it’s not going to ride like an Explorer or a Hylander. It’s ment to be rugged. I think it will ride much better the a wrangler but still going to have a truck feel and sound to it.I don't get it. Many people probably feel similarly about their pet options. If they want to pay for it, then everybody should be forced to get it. If I'm driving always with the roof off. You want me to pay for sound dampening material to sit in my garage?
Sorry, just not a big fan of people lobbying for less choice.

You're welcome, Larry!signed up, thanks.
- you bring up a very good point about expectations. High quality sound deadening is heavy. Racers - remove this first to cut weight out of their cars.If you've ever had a removable top, then you some idea of what to expect. They are usually made to be lightweight so you can easily remove them. Kinda like a well made cap for the bed of a truck. Usually one thin wall with no headliner or insulation. They aren't loud, but they aren't luxury SUV quality either. Some people who have never had a real off road vehicle are going to complain about the road noise. The tires will be louder. The top will be louder. It is what it is. They offer an option to make it quieter for those who don't want to use it for what it was intended.
That sounds like a glitch of some kind. I was able to order the headliner on my 2.7 2dr unless it comes standard with that engine choice which I don't think it does.When I try and add the headliner on the B&P it says I can’t because I selected the 2.7. Why is that? Why should it matter?
If you get a 4-door with either the 2.7 or Sasquatch, there are several things you can't add. Headliner and roof rack being notable ones. This is not a glitch. Ford just won't let you do it, apparently due to GVWR issues. No, it doesn't make sense. The only option is to order it through parts and install it later.When I try and add the headliner on the B&P it says I can’t because I selected the 2.7. Why is that? Why should it matter?
On another forum, a dealer commented that the “Additional sound Deadening Materials” in the High Package were actually under the hood. Tried to get confirmation, but my dealer was clueless.Every Bronco Model has the "Hard Top Sound Deadening Headliner" as an option under Interior. Also the High Package includes "Additional Sound Deadening Materials".
So headliner is 1 thing... The additional with the high does include some sort of material against the firewall, and might also be on the inside of the hood.On another forum, a dealer commented that the “Additional sound Deadening Materials” in the High Package were actually under the hood.

Same issue building some different variants this morning. I fail to see how changing the engine from the 2.3 to the 2.7 without changing anything else automatically makes it to where I can't have sound deadening option on the roof. It even said I couldn't have paint protection as well when I picked the 2.7 option which makes no sense.When I try and add the headliner on the B&P it says I can’t because I selected the 2.7.
