    Awesome, so what brand was it ?

    Before did you have to have the A/C on a higher setting (just for reference, so know how well it works)

    the thickness is the only diff. i see and at that, they are within...10/1000ths of each other.:huh:
    Dynamat is 60/1000ths thick...
    Fatmat Rattle trap Xtreame is 70/1000th...
    Peel & Seal is 60/1000th...
    i put 2 layers on (the hot spots) and have 120/1000ths (y) that is way better and cheaper...:huh:

    Does seem alot cheaper, and who's gonna know the difference anyways once it has carpet over it.

    How'd the carpet go back in fit wise after the extra thickness?

    Yea, I guess I should have figured that out first. lol

    I was thinking the double layers (1/8th inch) might make a difference lol

    I will definately be buying some for the mustang. Especially since it was a 4 speed car and will have to cover that hole up since its now a C4 w/ a pro stick.

    I can get a free pack of Dynamat from a friend ($300 worth) but if I need more will be buying what you used
