[QUOTE="Justintoxicated, post: 1068088, member: 561240"] I did, mine is 2 pieces of plastic pressed together, I deadened the shit out of it. I tried it with only a little deadening and there were still rattles, after adding a few more lbs of RAAMAT they are much reduced but at certain frequencies I still hear some (Subs will cover it up thoguh when I get them installed) IMO it may or may not be necessary, in my case I may pull it back off to add even more. I also noticed the plastic clips can resonate, so I added little rings I cut from some ensolite foam to them. I think the ensolite foam really reduced road noise and would recomend it. No, I would deaden the outer portion of the door first (the part that is painted on the outside. 1-2 layers of 60 mil RAAMAT... Then Behind where the speaker will be mounted I would make sure to add 3 layers of RAAMAT and Cover with Ensolite Foam (at least some kind of foam if you choose not to buy ensolite) Then, Matt the inner skin and seal up all the openings. It is recomended to first seal them off with Plexy or sheet aluminum, but there were way too many areas on mine, and I wanted to be able to get into those openings easily so I just covered all the open areas with RAAMAT, so they are sealed well still, but not as well as if I had used something ehidn the Matt, I dunno how much difference this makes cause the Midbass still sounds great. The important thing is to seal it up. Then cover with Ensolite foam. Make sure you don't cover the area where the door clips/pops go back in Leae abotu 1/2 inch between the pop holes and your Deadener. I did not do step 2, it's really not necessary, and in some cases may interfear with the windows. But if it works for you I doubt it would hurt. But it would be a real pain in the *** since you will be covering up bolt holes and other things from the inside. On m vehicles there were places that were nearly impossible to even reach on the inside of the inner door panel. However if you want to do it, you can try it. [/QUOTE]
