Do you guys not worry about moisture getting trapped by these, even the stock ones?
Seems a press-on/sticky type would be better in that regard, if there's no concern for stock appearance.. but still, I'd be concerned. Fixing rust sucks. . |

No, my teen is always garaged and I try not to drive in the rain. Look at what stock is, look at the whole thing. hard rubber outer with the fiber (horsehair?), then the steel but your not done. The other side you have the fitted rubber/tar sheet glued to the firewall and the whole back pad. You take away any part of that sandwich and it will add noise. To me just some dynamat or whatever is crap, I'd look to replicate that sandwich with modern materials. It's going to have some weight, if it's a street car you have to live with that fact. |
