Received these panels as a product review. Like them with a few minuses overall. Disappointing in that the passenger side the wiring harness / Molex Connector is still exposed. Helping with Noise reduction if it does will be a big plus.
My review:
I like these kick plates / Panel Guards But........
Does not protect / cover the Passenger side exposed wiring loom (see picture). This was my purpose in purchase as with only 700 miles on my 2025 my Copilot has managed to cause damage to the Factory wiring loom and Molex connector. Bummer as I thought this would protect future foot / shoe kicking.
other issue is the panel on the drivers side covers the OBD2 connector. For me, since I'll be connecting my Forscan Adapter and Scanguage to access this port it means either removing the plate or what I'll end up doing is modifying (Cutting away part of the Plate) to access without removal.
The good features, All the bolt holes / mounting points are a perfect match and simple 15 - 20 minutes install for both plates.
a "PLUS" not noted on the sellers description is these have a small amount of closed cell insulation (approx 2mm thick) on the back side that "Should" help with sound deadening and perhaps temperature insulation.
Value ? For the listed cost seems on the high side to me for the design and materials.
I really like the basics of these panels and would give higher marks if not for the few minor flaws for my needs.
If you don't have the reservations or needs as I pointed out, Order these as I have not seen any other similar producte out in the marker place.
