I know you can read and understand pictograms. You posted here in English.


It is saying that the tunnel gets hot. Don't remove the carpet.

It does get hot. I don't mind. I removed the carpet within hours of the Jeep being home.

Mine does every now and then. Probably because its summer.

yeah well the 6spd doesnt run hot, the auto's do

It's not really hot enough to burn you but it is hot enough that it is a little uncomfortable without shoes. 6 speed here. Never owned an auto so can't speak to that. The heat is also not just in the tunnel. It is all the floor pans once the heat transfers.

I've ridden in mine for almost 2 months now with no carpet and in the extreme Arizona heat, I'm with eMetal....mine doesn't really get that hot.

But I'm sure some d-bag put his lips on a transmission hump at one point in time on some vehicle and sued (and won) the manufacturers because he got his lips burnt. So now they add $4.99 to the price of our Jeeps to cover the cost of that sticker.

Mine gets hot. It heats up the whole Jeep. I usually drive bare foot, so I'm used to burning myself

I actually like it warming up like that. I use it to keep my food warm on trips.

You could put on a body lift to help cool the tub.
