**PART 1**
I got sick of not having any REAL sound in my DD so I lit a fire under my ass and tried an idea I had awhile ago. I sell a 90mil water-proof sound/crack isolation membrane for setting tile over concrete or plywood. It has the sticky tar-like adheasive like Dynamat Extreme but has a fiber mesh material on the other. This shit is STICKY!!!!! I grabbed a set of fowlers 6" RSd coax(for now) to through in the doors. I rains alot here and this isn't the most water tight car so I wanted to keep them safe. Pictures really tell the story. You should have a heat gun handy if it's not warm where you play as it makes it more shapeable. After getting a basic shape, I covered the mesh with a polyester glue for added strength. I also covered the door and back side of the door panel.

This is really not that expensive.......$2.00 sqft...... Both doors only cost me $40 bux.... :shock: 8) It applies VERY easy and doesn't tare like DM does when using the roller.

I am going to be following this project.

I have a 99 Civic that although my componets sound good, they could sound a hell of alot better. Kinda my own fault though, I have no deadening in the doors, the componets are just slapped into the stock locations.


Whenever I get the materials Twisted and I are gonna make a project out of my doors, installing some Rsd 6.5's and a JL 0w6 in each door. Fiberglassing closed the map pocket should make about the perfect enclosure for the 0w6's.


Let me know how this deadening material works out. If I was going to buy some where would I go and what would I ask for??

My company is the main(we sell the most :D ) distributor west of the Mississippi. There's a place out of Cali and one out of TX.

I'll tell everybody what it's called after if finish develpoing MY product as it'll be abit different from this. I used this material to see what would need to be done to really make it work in this application. Not to mention that I haven't thought of a good name for my product either... :hmm:

***$2.00 per sqft included the polyester glue I used for the pod.
Material alone runs around $1.50 sqft.


Let me know if ya want some. It comes 36" wide and up to 65ft long. I'll ship it out UPS.
