Cabin noise

lpsscc · 02-12-2012, 11:12 AM

Did the dynamat Yesterday. I used all 36 Square feet that came with the kit I got on ebay. Pain in the *** and time consuming. Only cut myself like 20 times. Big fun...

Anyway I did the doors and rear covering everything I could.
Huge difference! Even though I spilled at least a gallon of blood it was more than worth it and would do it again. I now plan to do the same with my Altima. Never knew this would help so much or I would have done it 7 years ago with my daily driver...

Thanks all. Was VERY worth it.

Glad to hear! I was really upset at my car at first and thought I made a terrible mistake but doing the hatch and doors makes all the difference...now with the new tires its really a pleasure to drive over long distances...

I'm not sure that enough emphasis what put into this thread on how much of a PITA this dynamat install is. Especially if you want it done right. If you can do this without spilling any blood,

. It does make a difference and IMO is well worth the blood, sweat and time.

Man...you're scaring me! I'm going to do mine as soon as it gets warmer (garage is maybe 50 degrees). Fortunately I've got another car so if I get frustrated I can stop and go back to it another day instead of having to finish up. That's the worst feeling - when you've got your car all torn apart and have to finish it becasue you have to drive it when you'd really rather step away for a while.
Drove mine in the rain for the first time Friday. You can actually hear the SPRAY in the wheel wells. Crazy. Can't believe they didn't try to mitigate this in some way or another.

EXACTLY!!! THIS is the noise that's crazy. Lucky me (sarcasm), all the first times I drove my car was in the rain.

And it was like, WOW, it's sounds like the rain is coming in the car it's so loud. I was like, what is this thing, an open wheeled F-1 car? But while the rain is loud, it doesn't bother me like the pebbles. The pebble noise is outlandish.
