Iv got 40 sheets to use. Main areas are 4 doors / floor pans and gearbox tunnel. Any left over will go in the scuttle

Getting closer every time... Looking  :cool: and still loving the dash despite your recent thoughts on it. 

Yeah one place I have to get sound deadening on is the scuttle/bulkhead if nowhere else.

Cheers dude.. Slight problem.. It sags a little  :angry: usualy youd steam them to pull them tight.. Im not sure i can do this tho aha hmmmmm.

I paid £80 for 40 sheets of sound deadening from car audio direct. Its realy highly rated stuff. Il post up my thoughts of it when i get round to doing it  :tongue:

What the dash is sagging or the material you've got stitched on it?  My dash has sagged slightly over the years, most noticeable around the drivers fresh air vent.

Be good to know how you get on with the sound stuff as I'm unsure what to get when I get round to doing mine.

Had a realy good productive day today with the golf..

Replaced the heater matrix

Fitted bonnet cable ( release cable )

Shrunk the roof lining with a hot air gun

stuck the A pillar trims in

put the front window screen in

sound deadening in the scuttle.. Very good stuff to use shaun, sticks better when heated. I deffinatly approve of it

Didnt snap any pics so il put a few on tomorrow
