    With everyones help I found the solution I think. 1/3 the cost of the Isuzu part if it was available.

    look at the spec's, their product spec's out just as well as the dynamat at half the cost. Get some extra and do both skins of your door's. Make alot of difference. I used almost also hundred foot of it so far.

    I didnt pay even a quarter of that for my dynamat. Either price has quadrupled or some one is playing loose with the facts.

    On many cars and trucks, the insert is used for noise dampening yes, but I think more so for blocking heat that actually causes paint discoloration on the top of the hood. You could easily use some lizardskin to block heat the same way and block noise as well. Obviously it won't fall off either. I have also seen sheets of aluminized insulation similar to what we have available from most auto parts stores. It would be attached in the same manner as our stock insulation.
