Dynamat install suggestions Im planning on installing Dynamat Extreme in my 2000 Z28 w/ t-tops. Any suggestions? I bought the bulk kit (9 sheets) so I want to intstall where ever possible without doing a full rip out of the interior. I would like to take care of the most common problem/noise areas first and then move on to the details. I have a subthump stealth box in the back and want to clean up some vibrations there too. I also want to quite down the doors, they rattle quite a bit when closing them. I just took my door panel off today and was wondering if I should remove the plastic water barrier and then put the dynamat down? Also, then do I even need this plastic?
I welcome any advice. Thanks, Mike.

start from where your resonance starts..... from the hatch forward. It only makes sense to stop vibrations from the source, not the reverb. The rear sail panel speakers helps alot too...... but I cant tell you how big a diff it makes as I have coated the whole car.
It doesn't take rocket science to see that.

As for the window regulators, I could not agree more, I made sure I cutout every nut just in case, I have felt the pain of replacing it.
I replaced the window motor when I had the door apart. Even if I did have to change it again it wont be as bad as it looks.
If it wasnt for the door panel I wouldn't of did the outside of the door. I would of done the inside panel/skin. The main reason I did the doors that way was because of the rattles. There is not one rattle in either door. No matter how hard or soft you shut them.
