IF your Jeep is an 07 -09 it has the plastic header panel. You need to order the steel header panel from mopar online parts for a 2010 and up model. My 2007 was so loud you needed to scream to be heard. Now my jeep is almost as quiet as a cadillac!!!

No problem man! It takes 2 people to install it, but it really isnt that hard to do. took me and my wife about an hour and a half. when you are done you will notice that it clamps the top down much lower and it will be rock solid. I cant get over how much quieter my Jeep is!! So well worth it!!
