Cra1g this is the address for fatmat http://stores.ebay.co.uk/YGRO-UK-Ltd. this stuff really easy to use. So far I've done my boot rear quarters, doors, and under the rear seats. gonna do the roof, and probably the door skins as well.

I didn't do under the front drivers or the passengers because the orginal VW item was in very good condition.

Sound Deadening.

Cra1g - if you really on a budget use roofing felt!

No I'm not joking!!! Go to Wickes and get a roll of the thick stuff (it may have green flakes on) and a tin of the cold fixing mastic.
These will do just as good a job at a fraction of the cost!!!

If you rich and ........... pay through the nose for Dynamat! :grin:

Yeah, but imagine, its a bit of a job lifting that stuff, do you really want to add all that weight into your car?

If you do it right and dont use too much mastic then the weight is no worse than Dynamat!

Also - why would you want to take it out again???

Dynamat  0.25m sq. = what £13 approx???
Roofing felt/mastic for that money you would get about 30 m sq!!!!!

Personally I use Dynamat in difficult places like doors and roofing felt on big areas! Just dont see the point in wasting money just to have named stuff in yer car!
