Search. We discuss this same topic 2 or 3 times a week.

I still say this board needs a sound deadener section.

Look harder. Most of them are filled with links to sounddeadener showdown, opinions from experts like Rudy and Foxpro, and plenty of related information.

craigslist/ebay RAAMat and Dynamat

bought a door kit of Dynamat Xtreme for $60 shipped (ebay)

bought 2 rolls of RAAMat BXT, non hardening clay, and some pads for behind my 6.5's for $70 (craigslist)

between the 2 I had enough for both doors and havnt touched the 2nd roll of RAAMat BXT, still have enough to do my trunk

Just did it a few weekends ago, first time as well, very easy as was hooking up my amp and whatnot... its all really simple IMO, just intimidating until you get in there and start tearing stuff apart

Rammat is the best you can get for the price imo

One roll is plenty for 2 doors. Dynamats door kits dont give you enough.

Forget any eD deadener products, so worthless. I'd pass on Dynamat and Dynamat Xtreme because they are too expensive and there are other products with better or similar quality at a cheaper price.

Rammaat is pretty good, it's my 2nd choice. I find it to be too tacky which can be a pain if you need to remove it immediately to relocate the piece. Price wise it's great.

My first choice goes to Second Skin. Either the Damplifier and Damplifier Pro will do you good. Damplifier (not the pro) is the thicker than Dynamat Xtreme and Rammaat. Both the regular and pro version allow you to lay the deadener and remove if necessary and it's not too tacky. If you're worried about it sticking, don't. Once on, it's there and won't come off. I've driven in 110 degree weather and had no problems with any leaking or whatever. It is a little more expensive than Rammmaat, but I'd say it's worth it.

You should go ahead and use eDead as a consequence for not SEARCHING
