I'm looking for something that works well but isn't REALLY FRIGGIN expensive. Does anyone have any idea WHAT and WHERE i can get it from? Thank you!

p.s. I would like to get it on order before the weekend!

 

Dynamat Extreme, it's about $80 for both doors

 

There's Second Skin...

There's also other stuff you can do...I found out a couple weeks ago that I should have searched for "Rattle" instead of deadening...

define expensive and not expensive?

i've seen 100 sq/ft of second skin for about $120, ram-mat for about $100.

if you want really cheap, partsexpress sells 8x10 sheets of asphalt deadening for speaker building $1.50 a sheet. i've used this before, it tends to stink (smells like ashphalt), i'd use it in the trunk, but not the doors. they also have some odorless vinyl sheets too $2.50 a sheet. both work well but if you need a lot, a larger role might make more sense.

 

is 100 sq/ft anough to get the trunk/doors?

 

went to Home Depot and foudn the poly stuff! It helped a lil bit. I just need to take care of the rattle from the rear hinge somehow.. we'll see!

 

Circut City sells a door kit for $39.99. Just like Dynamat but a different brand. I did both my doors and the trunk lid and still have a couple sheets left.

 

Dynamat is not a sound deadening product. It is a damping mat to reduce vibration. To deaden sound, you must first determine if it is high or low frequency. Each requires a different material. Dense material for low frequency, usually with a vinyl or metal decoupling layer, and acoustic foam for the higher frequencies. Since we are dealing with small amounts here, you have two choices. Look up soundproofing in the yellow pages, and call a supplier to see who he sells to in your area, and go buy a little bit.
And, or, go find an aircraft upholstery shop, prevalent around airports. Most of them use a lot of various kinds of damping and soundproofing material to make small planes and jets tolerable. I have always found the owners of the shops willing to help with a car project, just because it is so different. If you need more specific help, email me and I'll try to help.

 

got the poly stuff from lows for like 12.95 it was actually roofing material. It worked GReAT! no more rattle baby! thanks for all of your help!
