I have seen some options out there,
1. Stock 2. After market a. AA pad b. Rix914parts- modern material, light weight c. dynamat d. 914rubber pad. 3. -others?? Also in the cab, the rubber sound deadener( I assume this was only for sound or vibration, since it is rubber I doubt it did much for heat) - I pull this out it was stock and am trying to decide if I should put it back in again or do dynamat or something like this on the inside firewall before putting the backpad back in |

Matt has the dynamat door liners and also did the area around the foot wells. The dyenamat will help to reflect the sound back from the speakers on the foil side. Or so I've been told.

I am thinking about ordering that kit- the kit is for 4 door, so I thought about using it inside and behind the outer panel both. I don't think I am going to have time to knock this all out now, but I want to do the doors while they are open, that is why I also just got my door rebuild kit and door stay replacemnent from you !. Next will be the inside under carpet and backpad, but not really necessary to get the car running and on the road. We are in need of a trunk pad replacement and that is where I was looking at the dynapad non-stick option- it is specifically designed for trunk or floor where exhaust heat is transmitted. Maybe someone could use an original for a template and cut them, like you and George do for your firewall pad??? |
