depends how much deadening you'd need, lets say 6 sq ft per door , 24 sq ft for all 4 total, estimate you'd want roughly 36 for the trunk, try to get 60 st ft or so.

also take into consideration if you plan on doubling up the layers to, that helps alot. you can never use to much imo, the more the better. i'd get at least 100sqft. it also helps when you do the doors to get the inside of the door panels as well.

I plan on and have seen people use ~30 sqft per door //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

6sqft per door is really nothing.

If you want to do all 4 doors, I would say 15-20 per front door (if they have speakers in them) and the same for the back.

As the for the trunk. 40sqft would be good, as I've been told.

You're 300m is pretty much the same as my 02 Intrepid body wise, and this is what I've been quoted.

when i did a car a while ago, 4 door accord, just on doors and trunk alone i used 200sqft. maybe just a little more. on the doors and the panels and the entire trunk. just to give you an idea of how much to plan on. well worth it, the guy was happy with the results. ALOT less rattling and now the doors and trunk close hard with a good thud to them! no more hollow sound from them.

200sq ft is crazy.

BUT, if your doing the walls and the trunk floor, and even the rear deck then it may add up too that much.

Did you double layer?

walls and floor of trunk, and some doubling up. well worth the time.
