your local autobarn will have em. if not, any decent car audio sale centre would have sound deadening material also...

alternatively, you could always ebay it.

The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.

used to have that boot rattling, got a dynamat door pack off ebay for about 110 bucks to soundproof the doors but ended up applying them on the trunk lid and got rid of that rattle. Now the car's still making a rattling sound but i tracked it down to the number plates. thinking of ways to apply dynamat to that area but have no idea as to going about doing so. was thinking that if i dynamatted the back of the plates will the extreme weather or rain cause it to peel in time. anyone has any ideas?

the numberplate is as simple as putting a piece of foam behind it. just somthing to keep it from touching the car.

i am however, curious as to how you dynamat the boot lid. this could be simple to but looks like it would leave gaps between the mat and the lid if i just put it straight on.

just had my whole car dynamatted ... sounded awsome , until I got another rattle in my inside rear quarters ...

So im going to "home dynamat" them ... ie , tape 2 T-Shirts to the inside of the plastic quarter panels ... should sort it out hopefully ...
