[QUOTE="RockyPM, post: 240645"] I used 80 mil butyl mats. Came in 3' x 2' pieces, sticky backed. I used one per door. It did not have the metal foil on it but that can be used as well. I cut the sheet into two 18" pieces and installed into the outside panel within the door. There's a large opening at the back of the door that works very well. My local audio shop stated the entire surface doesn't have to be covered, just a good portion. I place the material from the upper horizontal brace through the door down to the base of the door. the 2' long sheet works perfectly and pretty much covers form the front to the back of the door below the horizontal bar. I then cut some 3/8" MDF to cover the large opening that was used to feed the mats through. I replaced the rubber cover then placed the MDF over top and screwed into place. then covered the MDF with sound deadening as well. I only had some 50 mil Kilmat left over from the interior so used that. Put everything back together and was shocked at how solid the door feels now! just a dull thud when it closes. How the audio sounds is heavier, fuller. I definitely feel it made a difference. Added a pic to show the large opening at the back of the door. Remember to clean all surfaces really well and roll the butyl on to assure it sticks. I didn't cover the inner frame but some people do. If I'm bored next winter I'll pull the panels off and do it as well. More is better, right?[ATTACH type="full"]79620[/ATTACH] If you plan on it google how to put the door panel back in with some wire looped over each of the hooks along the top. Once I did it this way it's so easy! [/QUOTE]
