    Remember....

    Sound deadening material = more weight.

    I am Dynamatted from gas pedal to tailgate. Probably added another 120lbs (guesstimate.... probably on the low side). That stuff is HEAVY.

    Doesn't really kill road noise much, but sure does take out any vibration from big baddaboom bass.

    Thumbs up

    Another cheaper alternative to mats, is RAAM Mat. A Google search will get you to their website. I have used it on 3 differnet vehicles and it makes a big difference.

    I used brownbread.. Got it on ebay for a decent price.. It is heavy though as mentioned. I think my shipping weight for 150 square feet was like 60-70 lbs.. Does work very well on the floor and side panels but it peeled off the roof on a hundred degree day and left a big mess
