Another vote for the Hothead Headliners being worth it. I'm a desert dweller, and my AC now works less than before. There's a video on YouTube somewhere actually measuring the temp differences. Install for me was easy as well, and I only removed the freedom panels.

I was thinking about fabing my own set of headliners because I am doing a complete after market Stereo system with sound dampening mat and mass Loaded Vinyl on the entire inside cabin. Still considering doing this but it appears there is already a product available. I may come out a little cheaper building it myself, but my time invested in doing it may out weigh the price.

Here is the YouTube video that goes over the install and the sound and temp differences. Sold me on them.

Has anyone installed some additional form of insulation or sound deadening under the headliner? I'm thinking of trying a dual layer approach of some sort.

Hotheads sells a sound deadening kit to install under the headliner.

I installed the sound assassins with my hothead headliners. Works well. I would do it again.

They are the thin strips that attach to the recess in top. The headliners attach to the raised portion of the top.

i did this in my jl and it made the liner too heavy for the standard adhesive.

Seems like something you could easily do yourself with some insulation material and a well cut 1/8 board. Then stretch your favorite color material around the 1/8 wood and secure.

Are the sound assassins just thin strips or do the cover the entire surface?
Hi Sean, we only sell Sound Assassin strips for the hard top because the headliner's 3M VHB tape needs to directly adhere to the hard top surface. If you take a look at the below images, the Sound Assassin strips will go in between where you will be instructed to apply the 3M VHB tape for your headliners.

If you're trying to maximize the reduction of noise in your Jeep, we also sell Sound Assassin Floor Packages to install under your carpet.

Sound Assassin Floor Packages - Gladiator

I hope that answers your question. Feel free to reach back out if you you have additional questions/concerns.

I discovered this by accident, since I wasn't quite ready to buy. Create an account on the Hothead order system site. Pick out your items and put them in the cart. Let it sit for a few days, and the system should send you a 10% discount code to encourage you to complete your purchase.
This does work in most cases. Advanced Auto dropped 20% the next day and 25% the day after Never thought of it as plan but it’s great.

I'm looking at the hothead liners for my gladiator to reduce some of the interior noise. Are there any promo code that work? Tried JT10, no luck.

Try my suggestion, repeated in post #28, or wait for the next holiday sale. You could try a PM to their forum account and see if they will offer something.
