Cool Dynamat? Factory System

Hey Guys ...

I have a bunch of Dynamat ... about 10 sq ft ... left over from a friends stereo install ... I am not really looking to upgrade the system on my TL as I like it as it is ...

I was wondering... do you think installing the Dynamat in the doors and rear-deck lid would help produce better acoustics?

If so ... where do you think the best places would be?

Thanks ...

10 sq feet isnt much... That is about 1-2 doors.. It took 70sq feet to do a saturn's Doors, roof, and rear deck...

I used about 5 sq feet a door. It sucked finding the holes that were required to mount the door after I covered them up.

The Dynamat Extreme is the only stuff I would use... No heating very sticky.. But it can cause a very nasty mess if you are not careful. It was hard to squeeze it behind the door panels (mind you, in a Saturn).

I didn’t like road noise, so I though the biggest difference was the roof. I wasn’t really after music, although that was my justification...

Thanks ... but do you think that using it is worth the time to take off the door and put on?

Not in a TL... Not with factory speakers. If I paid 340 bux for for the speakers in the door I would do it.

I have dynamatted my TL on the rear deck, front doors and under the rear seat. It was a noticeable difference but it really needs it on the front floorboard. I can still hear some road noise. You will notice a difference on the front doors.
