Is the tarish/rubber padding behind the backpad and glued to the firewall worth keeping? I'm assuming it's mainly for sound insulation.
Would I be better off replacing it with Dynamat type insulation? I've had to scrape the tar off the floors under the seats - and will be replacing that with Dynamat type insulation ... why not do more? Doors too? Actually I'll be using RAAMmat BXT - if there are any opinions out there... |

The stuff on the floor is totally different than the stuff on the firewall. When I put the new product on the floor it was a tar like material and the back pad was a fiber of some kind I can see where the firewall material could soak up water from a leak in the rear window.
On my 6 , I went with factory Wurth stuff. Description Of Product: The original German made material in heatable-beatable sheets. When installed, it duplicates the original sound deadening for the perfect concours look. One package completes one side. wurth FLOOR PAN TAR INSULATING KIT; 914 1970-76 I got it from AA.
