With my first 35ft^2 i did the doors, trunk lid, rear wheel area, some trunk floor, some trunk side.
I got a second 35ft^2 and did another 3-4ft^2 in the doors. Used some in a buddy's install. Nice to have around.
Actually I do have some left if you're seriously interested.
I live ~1hr west of London. Pm me if interested.

I'm not sure what the differences are in deadeners....I'm a big fan of Cascade.

Seems to be very easy to work with, but you do pay for it.

You can use the extra to put a second layer on the door . . .

If you don't have a sub, you don't have to worry about the trunk too much. Really concentrate on the doors. The outside skin and the inside skin. I doubled up the outside skin behind the speaker, and around the speaker mount area.

If you're planning on getting a sub in that ride one day you can do the trunk lid and wherever else in there. Or try to sell the rest.

pfft...screw the roller, I found that there's not enough nice flat area to make it really usefull.
Fingers and palms, its a real handjob [img]graemlins/jack.gif[/img] (sorry had to do it ). It's good to wear latex type gloves when working with it.

The bb sticks and molds very well. I do put it in the sun for a minute or two before applying to warm it up nicely.

i dont think there will be any sun in my future...components havent arrived yet.....canadian car audio is kicking my ***...its been 3 weeks now... thats way too long, and now that the weekend here it prolly wont show up untill monday, thats almost a month, might as well wait all together and install em next spring. unacceptable.

and just to clear one thing up....on canadian car audio it says powere handling of the components is 130wrms...so is that 65wrms perside or 130wrms perside?
