Title: Under carpet felt alternative Post by: lancialulu on December 09, 2024, 06:17:41 PM What do people do to replace the moulded thick felt (with black topping) one piece under carpet sound deadening.
The rear portion can be reused but the front disintegrated and in now in the bin.... I know about sound deadening self adhesive panels such as dynamat but would like something thicker (possibly closed cell rather than hessian) to replicate the original carpet underlay Title: Re: Under carpet felt alternative Post by: SanRemo78 on December 09, 2024, 06:35:47 PM Watching as I'm in the same position! My bulkhead mat pretty much disintegrated after a year of being moved around the garage. I'm planning on Dynamatting pretty much every panel but may look into a heat reflective option on top of that for the bulkhead.

Eric If you search for the Dynamat item 10 copies will appear.

I also have a set of tailored mats in the footwells.

5m rolls. A brief description is on page 6 of my "HPE rolling restoration" page. There's also a link to the foam-backed foil I put on top. Nigel |
