i used roadkill. cheaper than dynamat and same quality. as for a clean fit, its rectangle sheets, but once u get going, u cut it to fit however. and it gets covered so function is better than form.

I should also mention, I used a "fondant" roller to roll the product. It is the perfect tool.
I removed the entire interor (dash excluded) and layed down the second skin. I saved a few squares to use inside my doors when I taken them apart to install the new speakers from kee audio. The whole think took me 2 days to do.

Also look into something like a "luxury liner pro" to use specifically in your doors. They are quite obviously areas that are noisy.

Took me

I've only used dynamat in the past. It's not too hard to work with (stupid sticky though) It's always worked well for me.

I used Raamat. You don't need to do every square inch, just the ones that are more prone to rattling or vibrating.
