  1. Depends on dash and type of car.

     

    Classic car. Flat and not to many curvs 300 ish if it needs some repairs. If its got heaps of curves 600 plus. 

     

    Or if you are located in Auckland or love your car, go see dashboard restoration and get them to do it. Pay an arm, but end up with a brand new product.

    What about those thick grey shifting blankets, would they be any good? 

     

     

    Pretty much underlay. They might have a bit more movement in them so not that stable/rigid.

     

    If you were to ask me what I would actually recommend, i would say go buy some from an upholstery shop. I sell it for $50 a meter at 1.8 wide. You won't need 2 meters for a car or 1.6 for a ute, pay cash for a peace the guy has had under the bench and get it a bit cheaper.

    Any tips on what kind of motor felt to use Greg? I've been tempted to use house underlay, (because cheap/free) but it's not really anything like the right stuff to use.

    I have used house foam underfelt its quite nice easy to cut and doesn't really soak up water.

     

    Changed back to thick traditional underfelt just sits better over all. Also easy to get from my suppliers and used on a bunch of other things. 

     

    Either works just as fine.

    Would you Guy’s  still put felt down in between the sound deadening and carpet or will only carpet over top of sound deadening alone be sufficient?

    Felt is a must. Packs out the carpet and makes it nicer and if you glue your carper to your underfelt it will stay in place better and hold up longer/won't look like ass really fast.

     

    Also the black tar product will get stuck to your carpet and will rip the carpet. Won't rip the underfelt.

    What's up with Ryan Dunn ?

    He's burning through a serious amount of rotarys .

     

    maybe wants to sell it before rolling this one?

    did he ever end up selling his rx3 sedan he had for sale at 34k?
