I'm using RAAMmat BXT from www.raamaudio.com

You can see the difference in the pictures with CLD Tiles, the tiles have no wrinkles... and I'm using RAAMmat BXT to block holes, and corners or on top of OEM material, some times to hold CCF in place and for plastic panels to add a little bit of strength.

For lunch I had a couple dozens of crunches and some kind of Yoga going on! getting the Firewall treated it's very hard, especially on your body. But not impossible!

I put a few peaces of MLV behind the Fan/Cabin-air-filter and hold it in place with foam an lots of pressure. You can see the green foam on the left, behind that I slided a layer of MLV.

Then I took a big sheet of paper and kind of traced the corner shape all the way up, then cut a MLV following my traced paper and tuck in there, all the way up, the Amp wire is behind the MLV I don't know if this is ideal but it was kind of in the way; then hold it with a couple of bolts as you can see in the picture.

I cut it longer than I need it, on purpose so the wheel well gets 2 layers of MLV, I don't know if helps, but in this area for me it was easier to overlap a lot, instead of gluing to seal the MLV.









Thank you,

D.

Holy smokes! It took me 2 1/2 days to get through all the posts in here! I've learned alot and before I found this thread started to sound deaden my sedan. I'm using RAAMmat BXT II with Ensolite. So far I've done the entire trunk. I'm saving the Ensolite for the passenger compartment/doors. I've removed my rear seat and plastic pieces so I can get to the wheel wells. I've decided I want to get new speakers front and rear so with all the stuff currently removed from the back half it seems like the perfect time to replace the speakers. I plan on deadening the doors and floor, but that will be it. I'll keep an eye on this thread and on SQComp's build too regarding the headliner. Hmmmmm.

Anyway this is a most excellent thread! I'm not going anywhere near as Xtreme as you Derick, but I applaud your efforts! Keep up the good work.
