Upgraded my 22 OBX to a 25 Badlands, and since I’m going to be in it for a while, I figure I may as well make some mods that would make my life easier.
I work in a field, where I’m often times parked on the side of the road or other ways in need of, or would benefit from, additional warning...
4A comes on both the OBX SAS and the Badlands without. Any time you add the Sasquatch package you get 4A. (Most of the reason why I'm looking at those two options instead of my current in a new model).
I'm looking at almost the exact same question. Coming from a 2022 OBX Non-SAS with 86k on it though.
Decision is down to these two:

vs
Badlands Non-SAS - windowsticker.pdf
Really a tough decision on my end at least. I use it as my daily, but I do also use it...
Looking to get an OEM soft top for the '22 four door OBX I have. Ideally local in the greater northeast. Willing to drive to come grab it.
Alternately a Bestop Sunrider is another option if anyone's looking to offload one.
At this point I only upgraded the two side dash speakers to the Hertz and that alone cleared up a lot of that muddy mids that I was hearing through the original system.
I still have a pair of 6.5” to install but don’t really want to if I don’t need to (save a few bucks).What I’d love to do is...
Yeah, I opted non-squatch OBX with the rear lockers out of a knowledge that I live in Upstate NY, will be logging a ton of miles, have to deal with the snow, but won't be hitting anything offroad that would require more than that. Don't really need to disconnect sway bars and engage both lockers...
Same, I notice it's louder than around town, but can still talk to everyone else in there perfectly fine. Hoping it stays that way, since I've had it all of two weeks...
Curious now, since it seems people are conflicted on the 6.5"s.
That said, it sounds like it pulled that muddiness out that was bothering me in that low-mid range. That may be a big piece of the puzzle, clearing that area up and letting it breathe a little.
Thanks! Just checked out that video you posted. Was that a straight 1:1 speaker swap of the 4"-ers, no other changes when you recorded that? Seems night and day.
Alpines are where I was leaning from familiarity and price point, but wanted to make sure they held up in today's market or there wasn't something stupid I was missing.
If that tightens things up even a little, I think it would be the right move. The B&O isn't bad, just a little off for my ears.
Alright, so the brake controller, tailgate table, and various other accoutrements are installed and ready to head up camping this weekend. That said, on to the next one, as seems to be the case in these parts.
Factory B&O system, while seemingly a good bit ahead of the stock, is a little muddy...
