    Well, since some asshole punched my lock and broke into my truck I haven't done anything about it. Well, except make it more difficult for the next asshole. (See pic of door handle)

    So I ordered a new lock and began taking the door apart.

    Nothing in the door...nada. I'm doing the budget soundproofing. Went to HD and bought some FrostKing duct insulation. It's 1/8" thick with radiant barrier(foil).

    Does a good job. Did the driver side and leaving the passenger side til I get the lock in. image.jpg

    I was looking at paying out the ass for dyno mat. If this is even close to the same amount of sound/heat damping you will have become my new hero!

    I used a full can of rubberized undercoating along with a bit of 3m sound deadening mat. in one door and worked great. Gota do the other tomorrow. th_MOV_0019_zps1eysroao_d473cfddc665fe5083489dbd494ddcd2a5e3ad8d.jpg

    It may not be Dynomat but it's pretty close and not nearly as expensive.
    I do sound control for recording studios and know a thing or two.
    I was going to go with the undercoat on the inside but it's a bit messy and it doesn't close off the openings on the inside where the door panels go against.

    Nice Dynomat install. When the stereo is not blasting does it also make the ride noise more quiet? I want good stereo sound at the same time often on the bluetooth for work calls and trying to eliminate road noise as much as possible.

    When i was driving around with only one door deadened the difference could be heard pretty good. It mostly blocks out the noise of the front tires which is a good thing when your running mud terrains...

    how effective do you think spray foam would be for automotive? I know it's stiffer than the foam you find inside your couch. Would it work as a viable option you think?

    I wouldn't use expanding foam. The duct wrap I used was $14 a roll at HD. 12" x 15', one per door.
    It has good density and also has a radiant barrier for heat and cold, win-win.

    Whaaaaaat?? So basically what you are showing us is that this material looks and behaves the same way as Dynomat and FatMat but without the labeling on it and exhorbitant pricing as a result of said labeling? Wow I can't believe those companies have been ripping people off for so long.

    The peel and seal is asphalt based and it can smell pretty bad for the first couple weeks and on hot days after. Besides the smell it works in the same manor.

    most definitely. The metal panels act like resonators.
