	probably it goes pretty flat when you squash it and you can rip it into thin strips. think it works better when its filling a space really not sure what it would be like under the carpet. [Edited on 20-11-2007 by andyc1234]

	Would loft insulation fit under the carpets etc?

	tried carpet underlay. it doesnt make any difference really. loft insulation is great. makes a massive difference to road noise also. going to do it to the new one when im changing the seats.

	Dynamat or Ivonhoe Sound Deadening is apparently quite good for this, I will put a bit in the XE when I sort the rear out.

	i'm planning my install and wondered about sound proofing. i know that in terms of sound quality, the more sound proofing the better, but i'm already adding extra weight so i don't want to go silly... i'm not after big dbs, just a nice sounding system for my choons. i am going to be running a single 12" 1000w amped sub in the boot, 6x9s and comps amped in the front. how much difference will i notice from dynamat on boot floor (inc spare wheel well) and under the door panels?? is this a good move?? i have read about alternatives, any recommendations?? i would also like to reduce the drone of my exhaust at motorway speeds, will using something like dynamat stop this or do i need to go more hardcore?? sorry for the essay but wanna get some good advice before i crack on... cheers!! :thumbs:
