My weekend project is to remove the backpad and rubber pad behind it. So far so good - the two combined weight 26 lbs! I'm going to put down some Dynamat Extreme and then lay a Morph carpet kit over the top.
One question. Do I need to remove all of the glue that is stuck to the firewall from the original pad, or do you think I can just lay the Dynamat over it? What should I use? So far I've tried Goof Off and a razor blade scrapper, but that's going to take a while and I already have a buzz going (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s) |

Do you really have to get all that factory glue off the rear wall in order to apply the sound deadening pad? Seems like cleaning it real well with mineral spirits would at least get the oil off and make it clean enough for a good bond.
But what do I know. |
