Design Engineering 050179 Boom Mat Grey Complete Sound Deadening Kit Compatible With 4-Door Jeep Wrangler JL (2018-Up) Review

I bought it at the beginning of the summer and I haven't gotten over the cold winter yet. They definitely helped against road noise, especially since I have 35" tires. They are easy to install if you follow the instructions and are very sticky.

At least 2 people are required to remove the hard top without a lift. Everything fits as it should, but the biggest improvement is the temperature. My infrared thermometer read 172 F on the inside top before sun exposure, 133 F after setting. Huge difference.

The installation took very little time. It was mostly the preparation, which is important, but the basic setup was easy and quick. So far they're working well in our hot Phoenix sun. Someone else mentioned that they notice a big difference in their sound system and the Alpine system sounds better with them.

My biggest criticism of this product is that it costs almost $400! On some foam panels that are probably $20 and advertised as 1 inch thick, ONLY the liberty panels are 1 inch thick. Other panels such as B. the rear window panels are only 1/2 inch thick. I bought these to align the inserts with the frame on the top and sides to allow some panels (yes panels) to fit in the jeep. It didn't work as planned because the back panels weren't aligned since they were NOT 1 inch thick.

The box arrived badly damaged. Part of the paper that was on the sticky side peeled off and stuck to the cardboard box inside and couldn't be removed. When I cut open the box to get to them, the parts got damaged. I didn't buy them for the noise cancellation, if I did I would definitely return them. That doesn't change anything. The main reason I bought them was to keep my Jeep cooler in the summer. It's not hot enough outside to know if it's working. So I'll update this review when the temp…

Let's start with the installation. I removed the top and flipped it over for easier installation. Clean the top with alcohol to ensure the material adheres well. I used my apple watch to measure db without earbuds and when driving at 80mph it showed 75db, with earbuds and driving at the same speed it now reads 70db which is pretty good and took also an echo when I spoke to a passenger. Stereo sounds better too, I've only had this liner for the summer, you don't have to keep the AC on high, the…

At first the box was missing a few small parts. I only noticed when some plates were glued on. At the moment it cannot be returned. The mat was difficult to manipulate on both the jeep and the jeep as there is nowhere I can store a large backing board without damaging the paintwork. That being said, both the front and rear didn't run smoothly. All have wrinkles. I ended up having to cut out one of the back pieces and put it together to make it look complete. With most of the product installed…
