Cabin noise

Bonzo · 03-30-2012, 10:10 AM

Finally had a few minutes last night to download pictures off my camera.

I first bought the FatMat Trunk Kit, 5 sheets @ 18 x 36. This covered the fender humps, the front area behind the seats, and up and over the axle beam. But that was it.

Then I bought a 25 square ft FatMat bulk kit, 5 sheets @ 18 x 40. With this I was able to finish the bottom, back corners, back wall, and have 1 sheet left to double up on the fender humps.

In other words, if you want to do the ENTIRE back end, you will need about 50 sq ft.

Here's the rest of the pics.

Here's pics before the job even started, and then after it's done, putting everything back in.

Nice job. i would still add a layer , say 1/2inch of some other insulating material over the Fat Mat.

With all the specialty parts made for these cars I cant believe a company cant easily make a sound mat thats cut for our trunk areas. A simple computer mapping would make the cutting easy. Just sayin

One would think. This car is an anomaly.

On the after market front, I can't even get Weather Tech to make a formed rubber trunk liner mat for our cars either, and that's what they DO.

I guess with the super low production on these things we should be happy we got the car at all? Beggars can't be choosers??

Thanks for posting those picts up. That is almost exactly what I did with the FatMat product. Your pictures save me from posting up mine. I may have accidently deleted mine cause I can't find mine amoungst all my SD chips.

Thanks again.... it will help others....

Three of us cant get togther who used Dynamat, FatMat and Frost King and actually compare by riding in each others car over the same conditions. What works best? Full application, partial application. With doors and without. Adding extra layer on top and without. Which is best?
