I'm planning to reinstall the shaped tar pad on the firewall (goes between the backpad and the firewall on the interior of the car). The factory used some kind of sprayed-on yellow adhesive. Anyone know what that is and where to get it? Or maybe a good replacement?

3m or wurth adhesive spray will work... but I recommend dynamat or similar instead of the stock pad...

I replaced my pad with stuff from JC Whitney (shhhhh!). I used the 3-m adhesive. It is about three times the cost, but has prolly ten times the adhesion.

The only way I've gotten success with spray adhesive is if you take the time to remove all the old glue. That said an hour with some 80 grit sandpaper should do the trick. Pick up some giant magnets to hold the pad in place while it cures. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

BTW, I got your package a few days back. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Looks great. Installed this week.
