Took delivery of ours in Oct. 2025. It has a thick insulation against the firewall under the dash in some locations. Is that what they are refereeing to or do they all have that?

I think the new pieces are on the outside under the fenders and some look like plugs , maybe to fill holes some have been filling with foam . I think there are ten pieces.

I took the fenders off of ours and spray insulated all the holes and taped some places to make it look factory.

I thought about ordering the pieces , currently says all are on back order . Mine seems very good around dash area , no cold air. I get a little around drivers door handle at times . I thought it might help insulate the radiator heat on 90 degree days . All in all mine has been really good , I did add some weather stripping in the gaps between inner and outer door panels .
