Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 22, 2005 Shilakadaddy, did you mat under the rear seats too mate? I tripled layered it there because the exhaust is right underneath! I also put some sound absorbent pads on top and err, the seats only just went back in but it's worth it, LOL! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 22, 2005 Double glazing is for plebs, I'm going for triple glazing with heat refelective coatings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shilakadaddy 0 Posted April 22, 2005 Yeah you can't really tell from the pics because that brown bread stuff is really shiney... but it is actually there too - only single layer though. To be honest its my engine that makes the most noise, rather than my exhaust, so I think when I take my dash out (again!) to sort the wiring, I'll maybe try adding some to the bulk head... although I didn't see much room for any to go last time :?

coolrado 0 Posted April 22, 2005 would probably be easier to cover the engine side, its quite heat proof isnt it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shilakadaddy 0 Posted July 24, 2005 Thought I'd resurrect this thread as I've started the task of getting rid of all rattles! I currently have no interior what so ever (no dash, or even headlining)... so I'm wondering where the most benificial areas to apply the soundproofing stuff I have left is? So far I've done whats shown in the picture above (Boot, under rear seats and rear quarter panels) and both doors in a single layer... Where next? Edit: Picture from the previous page: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ice White Socks 0 Posted August 11, 2005 Actually I have just finished my doors today. have done the outer skin completely but a few parts of the inner skin- hopefully this will be enough deadening :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shilakadaddy 0 Posted August 11, 2005 I've got some dynamat left over from my old car, so hopefully that'll be enough to cover a door if one of my window motors brakes... just refitted my door cards today, and the door feels a lot heavier, and makes a much more definate 'cluck' when it closes... yet to tell about noise reduction tho Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
