deadening pics

3 layers of RAMMat on inside of the outer skin.

Laying out the Enolite . GO GATORS!

Ensolite instaled

Big holes sealed.

Finally

On to the drivers door.

Ouch.

That’s all for now. Hopefully I can finish up the drivers door this weekend. For anyone considering deadening their doors, the end result is incredible. I purposely finished the pass door before starting on the drivers side so I could balance back and forth and hear the difference. Even with the stock speakers, I was amazed at the effect it had. I can’t wait to hear it when I get a decent set of comps mounted to baffles. Thanks to everyone that gave me advise before I started this project.

Yeah, I found it funny that I sliced up my right hand doing the pass door and my left hand doing the drivers door. Coincidence………… hell if I know.

I finally settled on using the vapor barrier with silicone and screws.

Nice Install

Looks good man. I just recently finished mine and can't believe the difference it made. Like you said, even the factory speakers were improved. But, once I got the system in it really made it all worthwhile. I somehow only cut myself once and that was with a utility knife and not on the doors, and it was actually more of a stab rather than a cut.

When I was carpeting the sub box for the 4 tens in my Rodeo, I slipped and stuck the utility knife full tilt into my shin. Not a fun thing to do.

BassBaller5 · 12-11-2007, 12:27 AM

are you sure the barrier will add enough support? i ripped mine off too long ago to remember how well it held up.

TexAzTim · 12-11-2007, 12:33 AM

I don't imagine that was much fun. I always seem to get myself to some degree when I use a utility knife. Luckily I'm not a bleeder...

:woot: now get to building a baffle to mount the speaks on!

rukkuzz71 · 12-11-2007, 08:31 AM

the baffles will be coming soon. I plan on buying a router with the usual Lowes gift cards I get for Christmas. Then I need to pick out the comps and amp.

oldred95 · 12-11-2007, 03:02 PM

I'm very seriously considering doing this to my doors only I'm using the JC Whitney insulation which is like carpet padding with tin foil on it. Not the best I know but it should still help. How hard is it to remove the black frame work that holds all the workings of the window motor and such? I can't decide if it would be easier to remove that as well or cheat and use small pieces and go through whatever opening I can to insulate the back side of the door skin.

mabutler · 12-11-2007, 04:38 PM

Looks good. You can drive up and do mine next.

Thanks!

This was my first time deadening so I don’t really have a reference as to other mat companies. RAMMat comes highly recommended from a lot of the people on this forum and Rick was great to work with. He even e-mailed me to tell me I ordered too much ensolite . Most people wouldn’t be that honest.
