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... |

I used aviation soundproofing, it comes in sheets various thickness. It works great, light weight and very efficient. I bought a sheet of this stuff on ebay a long time ago, heres a site with basically the same product. It didn't interfere with the back pad install what so ever.
