It was an exact fit.....no guessing or cutting needed. 10-15 minute install with the top off....with the top on may be a little more tricky.

Thanks
Thanks for sharing the info...
Until now, I was considering buying one of the other brands. But, I didnt like the fitment, use of velcro, and I was doubtfull of the sound capabilities. I ordered the Soundcoat Headlinder a couple of days ago and it arrived today (fast shipping). Overall impressions are:
1. Very easy to install. This product will stick... no risk of it peeling away months/years later.
2. Nice texture that blends very well with the interior... I gives a stock look and definately improves the appearance.
3. Outstanding Sound Absorbsion!!! This should have been included in all JKs with hardtops. My rig is way more quiet (with stereo off) and (with stereo on) everything sounds better / cleaner.
4. The only noise I can hear now is through the floors.... my next project will definately be adding a simmilar sound absorbing matt to the floors.
Recomendations: I really hope this company will eventually add a kit for the hardtop sides (around the windows) for more sound absorbtion and keep the look consistant.
Bottom line: Yes, the cost is a bit pricey. However, this isnt just a headliner for appearance... it really does make the rig quieter. I'm hopefull that it will make the JK warmer in winter and cooler in summer as well (haven had it long enough to tell yet). Like many of you, I've purchaced a lot of things for my rig (some good, some worthless). I have absolutley no buyer's regret for this product.
Again, thanks for letting us know about this

I have asked AdamisAdam about this since he was the one working with Soundcoat on this product. I have been conversing with him via PM regarding the 2011 changes. I too am interested in this particular headliner for my 2011 Sahara. When I get more information I will let you know!

Yes....all the credit 
goes to adamisadam . He is the original one who worked with Soundcoat and helped them with this great headliner. I choose this product after reading his threads on the subject....thanks again adamisadam !!
You could probably call Dave a Northridge 4X4 and ask about the 2011 version, since he is selling them for Soundcoat.

Does anyone have any more pics of this product installed. Just curious to see how it looks from different angles. I'm assuming once these things are stuck on, they're on for good....so if I want to paint the inside of my hard top black, I should do it first.

Here is the website and it shows the full view.
Yes, I would paint it BEFORE you installed these.
I would assume the 3M adhesive that is used, is meant to be permanent.
You will love them....trust me....

I really like these liners. The original thread about them is great if you haven't read it yet. If I don't make them myself, these are they way that I'm going to go.
