Road noise in this car is horrible compared to the other cars I've driven. I'd like to put dynamat down wherever I can to stop the road noise. Any opinions on where to start. Should I take out the seats and do the floor first, or should I do the trunk first since there seems to be no sound deading material in there at all ? It's a hatch back so I think that is where most of the noise is coming from but I'm not sure. Has any one here solved this problem, and if so what all did it take?

I'd do the doors first, as that'll make a pretty big difference. smile.gif

i think i am having dejavu (sp?)

Like coomer said, do the doors first.

go to ebay.

there is someone selling 36 sq ft for 99 bucks

thats a good deal

a trunk kit at a retail shop is only 12 ft for 150 bucks

so 3 times as much for 50 less. fast shipping too

if you get it from that guy you should use about one full sheet on each door
the rest can go to the trunk

I found a lot of noise coming from the rear wheel wells when it rains. Try covering them and the inside of the doors.

another thing you can do is use ruberized undercoating. It worked great for me and it was cheep.
