I had a local audio shop do this for me a few months ago. They used something other than Dynamat and IIRC wound up using more than the equivalent of one roll just in the rear (more in the doors, of course). I had no rattling issues prior to that. My bill ran more than your estimate, but is probably largely due to a smaller market with essentially no competition. I didn't watch the install, but they did keep the car overnight due to the time involved.

She sounds like a keeper! It was definitely worth it to me just to quieten the road noise. I'm very pleased with the results.

This sounds right to me. If I had a younger back, I probably would have tried to tackle this one myself.

I also found this to be true, but it sounds like OP has already taken this step.
