I wrote to Wright Off Road which supply the mats shown in Michael's (Chucaro's had an earlier ref in the expedition post) post above, The following might be helpfull to anyone thinking about buying some of their product.
Thanks for your interest, the cost for the Acoustic Mat System would be £400 GBP inc delivery to you in Melbourne.
Each Polyurethane sheet would cost you £250 inc delivery to you.
The front is the most important.
TR658 Soundproof Kit - Defender 300TDI with R380 Gearbox
Computer cut sound proofing 65 quid plus shipping at PADDOCKS like i have said before jeez!
do you want me to fit it for ya lol
The two big improvments on mine were the under bonnet matting & I took off the cardboard cover behind the pedals and put some soundproofing there + passenger side. Huge difference. Also saw another with door seals around the bonnet, he said it worked well.
OK, OK.Quote:

If anyone does decide to use the same material, I would recommend getting it with foil backing, - foil backed ones can be joined with tape making for a much easier installation.
Last time I checked, the cheapest supplier in Perth was Ian's Industrial Supplies in Canning vale (08 9456 4777 or 0419 049 198). No affiliation with the seller.

Bojan, I made up a set of patterns for my 120", bonnet, footwells, gearbox tunnel.
Six, maybe seven years ago, and I think I chucked them out when I moved. I used large cardboard or taped together newspaper, wasn't hard and didn't take long. From what I recall I only had to do minimal trimming fo the insulation pieces.
