I ordered and installed one of these yesterday. It really did a good job of reducing the sound level. installation was easy until I broke one of the windshield washer connectors. Dumb mistake on my part. Ordered a new OEM from ebay.
I have a 23 XLT and noticed the same problem. I believe it's due to not having any insulation between the wheel well and door. You can look and see for yourself. I'm trying to find a solution.
Just got mine. Best price I could find was $23 out the door. I am an experienced model builder and I plan to transform this to a replica of my Maverick.
I've had this on my 23 XLT for a little over a year and am very happy with it?
