Am I the only one who hates the soundbar?

Ok got the new "Nitro" amp installed in 5 minutes!

And there is without a doubt a major difference in the sound.... No more highs that cut your head in 2. Now its more balanced. A huge difference in the lows and sub! But the best part is the soundbar is worth something now! Its sounds so nice to have a surround type sound instead of all the sound coming at you just from the front!

I am Very Happy!

$150 total....<-----including 2 day FedEx shipping!!

Definitely the fastest audio install I have ever done!

When you pull the sound bar you will also pull the over head front light.

Not that it's that great but it's part of the sound bar.

Yep. But then I took it out of the soundbar and attached it to the... uh... soundless bar.

You are not the only one. One of the very first things I thought when I first looked at the JKs when they came out was how big the soundbar seemed. In the back seat, it felt like it took up half the opening and would be really easy to hit your head on. Made it feel more like a small sunroof opening than a convertable in the back. I even asked the Salesman if I could order without it. The pictures without it look much better in my opinion. That said, I'll probably leave mine on for practical reasons (plus I don't have to sit in the back of my jeep), if I ever get it back from the service dept that is.

Default Tall people and JK

Thanks for the info on removing that sound bar--with the JK restyle I keep hitting my head (I'm 6'5" -I miss the old wrangler for the head room). Now to remove the sound bar and then Line-X it or wrap it in neoprene.

Default lousy roll bar

Never mind for tall guys removing the sound bar....if you remove the styrofoam inserts with it, then you have a sharp metal edge banging up against your head, enough to cause SERIOUS head trauma--what was Chrysler thinking with this roll bar?!?!?
