Adding a sub to Shaker 500
#11
Yes it is very easy to work with. I did 150 sq feet on an old car. I used a brand called brown bread. It is easy to lay, and I have a small roller that came in that kit to ensure it is sticking to everything. Issue I had with brown bread was the actual cutting of the pieces. Gummed up my cutters pretty bad.
I found the dynamat easier to cut for sure. And just as easy to lay. I still had my old roller from the first time, so used that to roll everything on as good as possible. Then I just used a screw driver to poke holes where all the clips go to hold the trunk lid cover on. Had it done within an hour. I did cut my fingers a couple times using a razor blade, but thats because I was rushing as day light was coming to an end.
It definately makes a difference. Makes the car sound more solid, hear less road noise, etc.

Got my Lloyds GT trunk mat in today. Fits really nice. Just need to put the sub/box back in. Pic shows how I bolted the box in. I replaced a plastic snap, with a long *** bolt. Then tighten inside the sub box with nut and washer. (sub has to be removed to take box out).

It was nice bolting to that location as well, as I didnt have to cut the trunk liner, but just remove the plastic push pin. Behind the carpet the bolt is also tightened down with another nut for it to stay tight in place. Little tricky to get the sub box to slide onto the bolt, but with some patience it can happen. Just didnt have time at lunch to get the box in place. Maybe tonight after work.
