    How much was the postage?

    The postage from UK can be quite high. How much was your postage. I think they sell sound proofing too for a similar price.

    Yes they do - I have emailed them to try and find out some details about it; I will post it here if they send any useful information.

    There are some businesses in the USA that sell sound insulation for cheap prices (unlike Australian firms) but they seem to have an allergy to replying to emails.

    I need to get insulation installed on mine before the 200tdi goes in,

    Cheers Charlie

    The problem with shipping from the UK is that Royal Mail no longer carry parcels heavier than 2kg. Up to that point, shipping is competitive.

    Beyond 2kg the sender needs to get a carrier involved (UPS, FedEx etc) and the minmum shipping cost you'll see is GBP39, say $A70.

    However, as the cost of parts in the UK is about half of the Australian price for the same item, if you need more than $140 of parts it's worth it to buy from the UK.

    LR Series in Yorkshire ship by FedEx, with delivery in 5 days from order.
