I have a 24 bronco raptor and the B&O sound system is not bad at all.. I actually like it
i'm just not happy with the woofer, bass is not sounding right as if the speaker is damaged, maybe not insulated correctly, vibrating noise.

I believe its a very basic subwoofer with paper. as soon as I purchase my Bronco im upgrading the system!

Nice looking Bronco ! What all have you done to it so far ?
thanks, I bought her configured this way, via Ford as a certified used vehicle. Here's what I confirmed was added:

- Upfitter Baja Designs roof light bar
- Method 323's
- Nitto 38x13.50x17 Trail Grapplers
- AMP Research Powerstep Plug-N-Play running boards (Wifey loves these, makes it super easy for her to get in and out)
- 2.25" leveling kit
- Hot Head roof liners

I talked to the shop in Scottsdale that did the work, and they confirmed and gave me a build sheet. Was pretty cool to get that from them.

There's a few more things in the interior. But overall, she's our beast, and we love her. Went from a 2019 Wrangler JL MOAB to this Raptor. Never looked back!

I’m getting my Taotor this Friday or Saturday and was wondering about the amp power steps. Do you know how difficult they might be to install?

You're in luck 2018BigDog......... Just did a complete install on my 25 BRaptor this weekend. I've installed them before so I really had a little advantage but I can confirm for all, %100 compatibility with the Raptor. Currently, no one selling them, (Real Truck) will state the work on the Raptor like other Bronco models. I installed the regular (not XL) as I like the look better and all went as planned. You do have to remove and relocate slightly as module on the passenger side frame rail for the rear motor bracket. That was expected due to others who have posted install details. I also installed just motors and loose install of all the wiring harness so I could test everything prior to the 1000 zip ties to clean everything up. Also, I did trim 4" off each board. Some say required, and other say they installed with no trimming. I think the look and fit is better with 4" removed. Also, you do not need to drop the wiring harness on the driver side to mount the motor. Note, you MUST have a ratchet style, 15mm, closed in wench to install the two front mounts. This is not a tool everyone has in their box so beware. Also, do yourself a favor and remove the front mud flap pieces and some additional trim clips on the front wheel wells (before you get going) as you will need access in that area for bolt removal of the factory rock slides and also to route and zip til the wire loom. I would say if you normally DIY and like this stuff, it's doable vs paying someone. That's all I can think of for now other than, I love these things and they look so good too.

I love you Raptor, I also have a 25 Raptor on order in Ruby Red Met Clearcoat but have never seen one in person, is that what color yours is and are you happy with it?
If you could do it again, is there anything you would change, such as black Fender flare or black top? I’m just curious. I ordered mine August 1 and just can’t wait till it gets here.Thank you

thanks, wouldn’t change a thing. Thought I wanted the gloss black top, but saw the matching Ruby top and was sold. This has everything I wanted and nothing I didn’t. I have custom wheels on the way and black lugs. That’s about it. Gonna add the FP tune after it gets back from full PPF. You will love it
