just a lux feature it just keep the engine noise down so it sound quieter from the outside and i think it keep the bay warm alot longer so u get a fast warm-up after its been sittin for a couple of hours so the heat is available sooner hope that helps and if im wrong plz someone correct me

Isn't it a federal regulation that you can't remove factory installed appliances from an automobile? Daaah no, It is ok to operated this vehicle with out hood insulation..

Anyway, it keeps the hood cooler to prevent steam from rising off of it in the rain, and it also keeps the engine quieter. You can safely take it off.
