for those of you that have put in dynamat i've got a few questions...

i want to dynamat my rear speaker deck and doors...should i dynamat the bottom or the top of the rear deck? have you ever had any problems with doors?

 

try fatmat. it works as well as the extreme but a hell of a lot cheaper oh' and it sticks better. you will like it and dynamat both sides of the rear deck!!

 

both sides and have fun with it..

 

I only did the bottom of the rear deck with expanding foam and it was enough. The door panels were easy to dynamat, I did the whole inside of the panels

 

what expanding foam?

 

Dynamat spray foam, it was discontinued

 

i used hushmat and i did the upperdeck and the trunk...hushmat is amazing

 

Where do you guys get the fatmat and hushmat at?

 

i used raam mat - google it.

Both sides btw.

 

how much sq. feet would you guys think it would take to do the whole car?

trunk, rear deck (both sides), floors, doors etc etc..

 

just google it hushmat or raammat (idk how good raammat is) but my trunk kit with 31 sq. ft. was 160 and i got the ultimate side. heres the link...http://discountave.net/a3huultrkit.html

 

my cousin bought 100sq ft and ended up using around 90 sq. ft. and i believe he covered the entire car

 

nice..cuz i got 125 sq. feet comming my way..

only 200 bucks

 

oh dude your probably gunna have some extra but thats good cuz u can double layer other spots............what kind did u get? and thats good for 200!

 

Outer-space

 

B-QUIET Extreme..there was a group buy on toronto accords..

http://www.b-quiet.com/

regular price for 50 sq/ft roll is $130 Shipped and we got it for 76 shipped each

 

Try ebay... They have a bunch of kinds that are a lot cheaper then DYNAMAT... You are really just paying for the name...

Be liberal... Put it anywhere. You can never have enough, especially in our rattlebox's...

 

i used 60 sqft in the trunk alone.

 

damn thats sound proof

 

yeah, seriously. Get any road noise? wow.

 

is that 60 sq. ft. double layered at all lol cuz i ordered 31 sq. ft. and it says its a trunk kit

 

HOLY HUSHMAT BATMAN.....haha WOW....you shouldnt have any rattles or road noise HOLY JESUS

 

its not double layered.....there is some over lapping at the edges but pretty much every inch is covered.

I dunno, its pretty good, but i dont ride in my truck so i dont know about road noise in the truck. I Still need to do the doors and more of the interior of the car.

let me know if you have any questions, its pretty easy to do, just make sure you mark where the holes are for the carpet!!

 

i'm pretty sure that's what you mean, so... fixed!

Also, how do you remove the carpet?

I see there are clips in the trunk, are they for removing/installing the carpet?

How about the driver & passenger carpet?

Can you put the carpet back in/ on top of the sound deadening material?

sorry for so many q's but i'm trying to quiet my car too. Thanks



I'm a visual person so if you have some pics of how you do it, please post it.

 

Trunk carpet is very easy, it's held in by 15 or so clips that just pop in and out. The carpet looks like this when it comes out.




As for the front carpet, I haven't taken mine out, but it is also held down by the seats and a few clips, you can get mat under there, but like others have said, don't cover the holes

 

Cool thanks, some RAAMAudio BXT's coming my way!

Winter break is almost over and i only did two things to my car... one of which is not a "mod" per se.... so little time.


FYI: There's a group buy on the materials that the owner of RAAMAudio just informed me via email. It's like 30% cheaper than regular so anyone wants in let me know.

 

Thanks for the Fix,

Chris answered your trunk questions. Just make sure you keep all the Clips, they are easy to lose.

As far as the interior goes, Anything is possible, it depends on your patience and skill. I'm sure you can replace the carpet on top of sound deadening. The hardest pare will be removing your seats and finding where the carpet is clipped down. ITs not impossible, but will take time, and your car would be out of commission for more than a day for sure.

 

RAAMat is good stuff, think-sticky-easy to work with-great for the price.
