If you mean the sound deadening I think the 2wd had the similar sort of thing just without the cut out bit for the vents, I could be wrong though

Yes Charlie the sound deadening .The 4x4 one comes with a small heat shield on it too.
It also has a rubber seal at the front part of it sealing along the front panel.
Being as 2wd without vents I thought it would be a good move if it physically fitted on the bonnet underside.
Someone must know . If its ghia's only that had them it,ll be hard to source 2wd version if they are about.
Ah ha it looks good. Although hard to see it properly . Interesting Ford seem to of missed the Cosworth 2wd saph with this. I may well use my 4x4 one and get my local trimmer to sort the vent holes .
it's purely there for sound deadening, but seeing as there is also the potential for a fire, that's probably why so many cars don't have it, even if it was fitted from new
I have one on my saph and it's got the vent cut outs. Can't remember if there is heat protective material on there now. Even got the rubber lip at the front of the bonnet
without these I'm scared on rainy days when the water vaporizes on the bonnet almost every time I stop the car.
Genuine or good quality ones should be flame-resistant, so nothing to worry about.
