Looks like it is grounding the orange/violet wire through SQ997, I don’t know what that is, maybe a resistor, maybe just a ground.

This is interesting. Doesn't make much sense to me though, the soft tops don't have this.

The softop is always “topless” so there is no change in the audio level.

Not exactly, but it seems like a silly 'feature' for the hard tops.

The audio change is quite noticeable, the video link posted earlier is a fair representation of it.

Did it work?
Nope ...there was a millisecond when jumping the two pins where it went lower then resumed to the original sound. I was so hoping it was gonna work, cuz it did on my JK
