I used the HotHeads back in 2014 on a couple of Jeeps JKU. It really made a difference by dropping the temp, hard top vibrations and external noise. At that time they didn't have the extra sound proofing material but I did use Dynamat Xtreme I had left from another project and that loved the final results. Then I switched to the Mopar brand on my 2016 because they look factory like and more importantly are splash resistant. I still had to use the Dynamat for additional sound proofing. These should come from the factory though.
Rob, a little off topic, but have you or Randle had problems with the rear glass leaking? (just above the rear slider). My Rudicon leaks pretty good in a strong rain, snow, (im in Jersey) car wash, etc. My dealer has a third party glass guy who corrects these defects. He told me he does three or four back glass Gladiator removal, reseal with a fresh gasket and replaced glass a week. He even felt at the rate of his fixes alone that Jeep should recall the truck to inspect the seal and replace it if nessessary. I was told the job would take about two hrs and a courtesy car would be provided. I read some of the Gladiator forums and most guys who have the issue , didn't know until they actually looked for water behind the back seat. Hopefully yours does not have it, but if it does, there is a fix...once the gasket finally arrives to the dealership! i was told they would have it within a week and after 14 day im still waiting. Glad i have a garage!
I have exactly the same problem with my JT Rubicon and the dealership, after 4 months, still has not gotten the parts. I don’t drive it in the rain and it sleeps in my garage but A recall should be issued.

It’s amazing the difference they make👍
One of the first mods I did to my 2021 Gladiator. Great quality and easy install. Weather Tech sells a front window shade also that fits like a glove.
I bought and installed the hot heads too. I installed it on my own and it took me about 45 minutes to do it. Easy peesey!
Nice👍
Good stuff! Love the bloopers.
Thanks 👍
Great sound
My LE came with it, and i'm glad it did.
It makes a big difference 👍

No issues on mine. Not sure on Randall’s🤔
Hi Rob, do you have any thoughts on Hotheads over the Mopar sound inserts? Thanks
Nope. I’d go with the cheapest 👍
@@robmotiveplus ok, thanks
Show us the the actual sound proofing, yeah???
See the channel. There’s an install there👍
noise isn't too much an issue for me, climate control on the other hand,
