Dynamat....

Ive got to give this stuff a plus, i put a sheet on each of the rear speakers and they sound a lot better, and it also cut down on some noise, i bought 2 rolls of the 4sq. ft, ive got some left over so im gonna do the trans tunnel and up under the radio off to the sides

its expensive but its good, just cut the size, peel and stick, i didnt have a roller like they tell you to use but i did put my bic lighter to good use, ill post pics later after i get the rest in, i wanna see just how good this stuff is for heat insulation i guess the center console will be the best test, that puts off the most heat ive ever seen...besides the vents lol awesome blend door

Re: Dynamat....

no question that dynamat's a good product. but thanks to the internet, there are a lot of good competitors out there for a lower price (Raammat comes first to mind). It will help to use a hairdryer or heatgun to get it to stick in the weirder spots. A little bit can go a long way to getting rid of rattles in a 20+ yr old car

Re: Dynamat....

Dynamat and Dynamat Xtreme is a very good sound deadener. Even 25% coverage on a panel will reduce vibration.

It is not really meant to be used for heat insulation.

Re: Dynamat....

hey it works lol i just finished covering the tranny tunnel with it, after the speakers were done, it turned out really well and again, my bic came in handy for those weird spots, the 2 rolls i bought went really far, i kept creeping with it as i was laying it going...damn ...i think ive got more than i need, so it just went in, im taking a break now because its 103* and ive been working since 6 so the suns got me slightly fried

as for the review i figured id put it up because it does an amazing job, but i have seen people complain about ; A. Price and B. ease of use

yeah its expensive i paid 60 bucks for 8 sq feet, but it got my speakers set right and the interior a little more passenger friendly. It was tricky in some spots but the cool thing is you just cut and mold, then pull the adhesive and roll it down, but i did make the mistake of cutting it kinda rough and the roll bit me back, that foil can go pretty deep in an unsuspecting finger >_<

Re: Dynamat....

layered my inner doorskins in FatMat. very nice upgrade. doors sound solid when closed, and the car feels more "expensive" inside while driving.
