Hey, i've just had to pull out the carpet and underlay from my wagon because the drivers side floor pan filled up with water from a windscreen leak. because of this the factory sound deadener has water under it so i started ripping that up too, most just flaked off. So now i want to re-sound deaden the floor but dont know whether i should just get a tin of k&h soundproof stuff and paste that on where i have chipped the old stuff off (once floor has dried) or if i should invest in some sound deadening sheets that have the foil to deflect heat.. So i'm just wondering what people on here have found to work the best for them and also if anyone knows where i can buy some decent sound deadener sheets for a reasonable price.. just looking to block out road noise and also some driveline and fuel pump noise.

if your going to use tar mats don't use dynamat (silver backed) its dear as poison go to an automotive paint store and buy tar sheets from there way cheaper

if you do want dynamat knox autocarpets has it at a very good price (last time I was there.) I use a combination of dynamat and bitumen / tar paint

Buy it direct from the states via ebay. Dirt cheap

Ok so i today i picked up a bulk pack of stinger "roadkill" sound deadener sheets for $150. it was $330 but a customer never picked up the order. If possible i want to try to have enough sheets left over to do my sedan as well. from memory theres about nine sheets all up. does anyone here know the best way to lay out the sheets in a way thats not wasting them?? basically i am putting down some black sound deadener from the tin to replace the **** thats stuffed then i am laying the sheets over that. my only goal is to block out some road, transmission and engine noise plus make the car a little cooler in the process. i have no real interest in the benefits it has for audio installs as im not really into them. my plan is to only use the sheets were i have to. behind dash/firewall (engine noise), around shifter/trans tunnel bump (road and gearbox noise), and floor pan from pedal box to rear floor pans (but may stop at under of front seats) Any opinions on this approach and do you think it will be effective? I'll also be using new underlay over the top of the sheets and factory deadener.actually its just cut up movers blankets from bunnings because i'm a cheap ******* haha but still should work ok.

dont brush the tin stuff on first, it stays soft and the sheets wont stick to it properly. Use a heat gun to soften the sheets as you push them into place and use a roller to push it in tight.
