Who has insulation on hood? I am new to Camaros and my SS has a bare hood. Every other car I have ever owned had a hood liner. I think it would help my whole sound deadening project. Do the non-SS hoods have a liner and would it fit my hood? I like the look of the hood but making it quiet would be nice too.
Also I plan to put sound dampener on the floor over the winter, how far up the firewall do people go?

My hawk hood doesn't have a liner. I've seen an SS hood and no liner on it.
On the other hand, I had a 93 Formula and it had liner on it. Bought aftermarket (Harwood) ram air hood and reused the linear on it.

The 98 and 99 models came with the hood insulation but it was dropped starting with the 2000 model. The part number 10272374 (10272375 for Firebird) is listed as fitting all 98-99 Camaro hoods - including the SS. There is no reason it wouldn't fit a later model.

Great, thanks for the part number.

I picked up a factory Camaro hood liner but does anyone have a picture showing where it goes on the hood, the holes are not drilled for the little clips and the liner is actualy quite a bit smaller than the hood.

Actually, now that I see it has cut outs to fit over the hinge mounts, you can't really put it on wrong.
Neither of my cars have a hood liner and they are both '99s. what is the point of the liner. IMO, unless you are putting sound deadening on much more of your car, this is pointless. much more sound is coming in from other places
