it does help reduce road noise and increase your stereo. I've just put 2 15" subs in my boot running off a 1500w RMS amp and the panels I haven't done you can see them moving! The roof, rear quarters and tailgate are actually bulging when it's cranked up to the full.

my bosses' A3's are both done with Dynamat extreme. the roof and whole back end are completely covered as well as both doors and the sound is awesome inside. they both said road noise was reduced and this is in a '54 plate car so imagen what it's like a in '87 mk2.

Well i aint really started on my Golf yet, but the system in my 405 is powerful enough to vibrate most of the car!

And yes i have used Dynamat in selected locations! Outer skins of doors etc and around the sub box. Its all due for a rebuild as some of the actual build and bolted connections can be improved.
In other less important areas i have used roofing felt!

I just dont see the point in spending loads of money where it aint needed!

Another thought - Lewy if you get the same kind of vibrations in a helicopter as you get in cars i would have thought that could cause serious damage to your health!!

Have seen a lot of stuff spouted around here lately and here is another little gem for y'all

Fine build up of door pods etc. and sure they will look great but at the end of the day most of these still rely on the door cards and their flimsy plastic clips! The odd screw here and there.
Now what i have done is to build in metal brackets to the door pods and fixed these to the inner door skin.
Does make the build a bit more difficult, in that you have to use a bit of inguenuity to hide these fixings. The way i did it was to mount the speakers (Infinity 6x9s) on the outside of the pods, so that to gain access or remove the door cards/pods, this gives access to the bolts holding the brackets to the door.

This gives a nice solid basis for the sound box/speakers and doesnt add to the vibrations!

Not far off, we fly the PUMA (Permanently Unserviceable Military Aircraft), and it's like sitting on a spin dryer on max chat!!

Gives you right semi I can tell you  . So in essence it's very like driving my MK2

I'm going to cover the inside of my door card in fibreglass. that'll make it solid as. then add a few more places to attach it to the actual door.

Fibreglass still rattles!

The only way is to mould in the speaker surround and secure it the best you can to the inner door skin!

It seems to be a real good price. Im planning on getting a 50sq ft roll. What areas should i do? Gonna do the doors 1st. Is it a good idea to do the inside of y sub box or will that kill the bass?
