So has anyone tried, or knows of good material to use for sound insulation in an L series?

I am aware of that silver stuff that Jcar sells, but I am looking for something more heavy duty and better insulating.

to try and stop road noise? or to try and make panels not vibrate with music?

as far as i know the silver stuff jaycar sells helps to stop vibrations by basically adding weight to whatever you put it on
you can also get spray and brush on body deadner too.. very messy tho

to try and stop road noise you need the carpet underlay like the multicoloured felt

and as goes with everything i spose.. the more the merrier so go with both types over everything you can get yer hands on

that brush on tar stuff seems to go alright

How about the front (A) pillar. Anybody try to fill them up with stuff? And yeah I need sound insulation.

Options for doors as well as carpet?

expanding foam works wonders on cavities you can just fill up

i hate the stuff tho... it goes everywhere and gets on everything

if your doing stuff properly and like to spend money to make sure its done right, dynamat extreme seems to be the go with stinger roadkill expert hot on its tails

I think it is "Body Schultz" and can sprayed on also.

I tryed some of that in my engine bay once... looked great until i degreased the engine bay and it all came off. Be aware that some brands of the stuff does wash off with degreaser.

Dyna mat i think works really well for music insulation.
it is that road base stuff that u cut to the size of ya panels and wack it on
