[QUOTE="just call me KeV, post: 8808092, member: 656095"] I'll try to answer your questions if I can. 1) Yes, you should use a good butyl deadener with a thick foil constrainment layer as a base. 2)The ccf (or neoprene can be used) inbetween the deadener. Just make sure it is closed cell and hydrophobic. (no likey water) 3) I like to use ccf and neoprene that has an adhesive back. Just prep the surface with alcohol or your favorite non residue cleaner. MLV in the headliner is too much work. And very heavy esp. in a vehicle such as yours where there is a long span. 4) MLV. I used 2 lb under the carpet in the cabin from the firewall to under the rear seats and 1lb. in the doors but only on the door skin. Not the inside. I didn't have confidence in an adhesive with that weight given rain/snow. etc 5) [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F6PJR3P/?tag=caraudiocom-20']Amazon.com: XCEL Extra Large, Value Roll, Sponge Neoprene Sheet with Adhesive 72 in x 17 in x 1/4 in, Made in USA, Easy Cut Material : Industrial & Scientific[/URL] [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017DVK1IE/?tag=caraudiocom-20']Amazon.com: Soundsulate™ 1 lb Mass Loaded Vinyl MLV, Soundproofing Barrier 4' x 25' (100 sf) click for ADDITIONAL OPTIONS : Musical Instruments[/URL] [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077DKR8JZ/?tag=caraudiocom-20']Amazon.com: Soundsulate™ 2 lb Mass Loaded Vinyl MLV, Soundproofing Barrier 4' X 15' (60 sf) Click for ADDITIONAL OPTIONS : Musical Instruments[/URL] It gets expensive quick.
