Just to speak to the construction on the 914Rubber.com pad.
We use an OEM style felt pad that is treating to make it more water resistant. Instead of using a tar, we use a rubber that will work to absorb sound, is more fire resistant and is MUCH lighter than the OEM pads. Once installed it looks pretty stock. Our cost on these will be going up shortly due to materials cost should be about $20 but until we sell the product we were able to make at the lower cost you save. |

I don't care too much about stock look. Deadening sound is the goal and doing so without a sh*tpile of added weight would be nice. Would you recommend adding that heavy duty velcro to affix it or using some sort of spray adhesive? |
