Wow, it's amazing how time goes by, I got this deck for my Tacoma back in 1999-2000 that's 10 years ago!

Ok, I had a very hard time trying to install a 10mm spacer in the rear left corner, It's amazing how TOOLS make a big difference. Now I have to do the other side...

HOW does... this translates into sound deadening...
Well the Wheel/Tire is spinning 10mm away from the Wheel well!



I hope I'm getting more stuff from Rick (RaamMat) tomorrow or Tuesday, we'll see.

I just got the Ensolite IUO Peal and Stick, and took pictures next to the CCF that I've been using.







The Ensolite is almost as thick as the 1/8" CCF the good thing is that works like a sticker, so will help me apply it in the back of the trim panels.

OHH NO! so much work to do!

Great pics! Honestly I'm not sure I would want to work with anything thicker than the 1/8" vinyl nitrile or the Ensolite that I have been using. For me, I'm not going for that much sound deadening!

Thanks.




The foam not only helps absorb some very high frequency noises that the first layer of substrate may not block.

And when trim panels buzz or rattle, the use of foam will isolate them from whatever they are rattling against.

Wow...!

I just finished with the other spacer in the rear right wheel. It's just 10mm away from the wheel well but every grain of sand counts!

Tomorrow will get rid of snow tires and put the new O.Z. shoes (o:

Yes I'm!

I've seen your pictures before, very nice custom speakers in the doors and for the woofer too.

Did you plug in the sound system or they did it for you too?

The new wheels look good, but I'm having rubbing issues in the back, and I tried to remove the spacer but it's close to impossible, I'm going to try with a RING-TYPE COIL SPRING STABILIZER



to see if I can lift and stiff the rear a little bit, I'm going to need it any way to take care of the extra weight of the subwoofer box and the deadening material added to the car. This will be a temporary fix until I get coilovers.



I got to go back and do some more deadening.

I'm exhausted too, last night I went straight to bed... but "When The Going Gets Tough The Tough Get Going"

The good things is that every time I treat a section the results just get better and better.

But it's hard with 50-60 hrs of work per week, a house to take care and the most important a Family to LOVE.




I took a bunch of pictures to create this panorama of my house as I was leaving to work this morning: (may 7, 2010)




And here we are... me and my family. (Natalia will be born on July 8th) I have to finish this project before that!

I would love to do this to my car, or, better yet, have this done to my car. But, I can't imagine myself doing this. It looks so damn tedious.
