JBL Soundbar mounted... upward?

[DaveInSA]

Has anyone seen this before?
Just bought a used 2021 Badlands. Didn't even realize it had the JBL sound bar cause of the way it's mounted..
It's facing.. up? I mean, it doesn't interfere with the rear view, but....

I've heard of a few people mounting it above the roll bar like yours. The angle of the speakers on the soundbar can be adjusted to point forwards instead of up. Heres an install link that may help adjust them to forward facing.

.. I think I'm gonna take it off.. If you can point them forward, it won't do much as it would be facing the bar in front of it. And I don't want to destroy my rear view.. So maybe some mabbet speaker pods and some ok speakers...
Anyone know if I remove it, I guess I have to have it flashed again to update the software? That can't be done with Forscan right?

You should be fine without reflashing it. The software flash for the JBL soundbar opens up the full range of the rear speakers.
