If you put double carpets in then the noise reduces dramatically. They will fit fine just be careful lining up some of the more difficult points, like the screw hole beside the accelerator. It makes a whole world of difference as the engine noise also travels under the car as you are driving.

So does mine but on the whole i think the standard sound deadening inside any pre mk4 Golfs is poor.
