    Dynamat is great to stop drumming/vibrating panels but not great in stopping sound transmission. For that you will need some additional stuff to give you both an air gap and some density/barrier. Ideally some closed cell foam then a layer of something dense like barium impregnated vinyl then some more foam. Been trying to quiten down the 130 CC for the past six months with the above combinations. Next area to tackle is the firewall. I think I'm making progress but it could be just me going deaf!

    Well took my motorcar for a drive and there is a marked improvement, still a fair bit of engine noise but the transmission is a whisper now compared to before. Will get some proper engine bay dynamat probably the 13mm stuff and cut it to fit. Worth the effort, definitely. There is a bloke selling those tiles cheap on gumtree

    I know this an old thread but thought I would share that a couple of days ago I used Beam Rust Proofing in Belmont to put Rhino Liner in the rear wheel arches and also rust proof my new Defender. That combined with putting some yoga matting I bought in Bunnings under the floor mats has made a big difference.

    So far the stones I have flicked up have been hardly noticeable. Wife is very happy!

    I have access to Thermobreak closed cell foam and was thinking of installing them in my 110, are they any good in such an application?
