I've been working too much, it's 1:30 am and we are still in the office trying to finish this project, it's due tomorrow at noon, and I'm thinking about all this....

This is so clever, simple and amazing...

Ok, back into my car, even though we had some celebrations at home over the weekend I did the other side of the A pillar (the one that holds the front seat belts)

This is how it looks when you take the panel out...

After some CLD Tiles and Pink insulation material stuck all the way inside...

The panel with some Mat and some Ensolite on top...

The panel with a full layer of MLV...

Some ensolite on top of the MLV to finish the treatment... BTW I didn't put it on a scale but the trim panel at least double it's weight!

Next is the left front door and the floor area right under pilot's area and fire wall, followed by the Hood and front fenders (I have no idea how I'm going to accomplish these)

Will the panel even fit back on?

You're a sick, sick man! You need to get yourself some professional help!

Be careful stuffing insulation around the seat belt, i remember there being a recall on this, something about the seat belt sparking when it was engaging during a collision and starting a fire, i know my 07 had a recall.

Yes, the panels fit perfectly snug and dead!

Hey I have another good one for you:

as I drive about 65 mph on the highway I used to hear/feel the cars/trucks behind me and passing me, now if I don't keep an eye one the rear view mirrors some times I get this "surprise... I'm passing you"!

It's taking a while to get use to

but...

I like it!

Yes I heard about that!

I Pray that I'll be back safe home to be with my family every day.

And like I used to say about helmets... I'm going to wear it, but I'm not planing in using it!

I hope we are all good!

OK, I had to go and look at the fire wall...

Now I know where is all that noise coming from...

I put 2.5 CLD Tiles in the flat areas to control resonance, and for now I lay down a layer of CCF 1/4" and covered back with the OEM carpet, I need to spend more time in this area so I can lay down the MLV.

Even with only the CLD Tiles and Foam, I can tell the difference, the MLV will really quiet things around in this area, but it's going to be very hard.

This is a photo I took this morning when I was taking pictures for a new project...

derickveliz2 · 06-08-2010, 04:07 PM

.

At lunch time I removed the panel from the left front door, and put some butyl rope inside and 2 CLD Tiles, this time I'm putting most of it inside of the inner wall (where the speaker is), on the right door I had to trim the MLV a lot to get the panel back in place, so this time I'm taking my precautions.

I work for 2 hours on the front left door... Time consuming

Pictures... soon.

Wires for 6.5 driver, I dislike this task, it's not easy. ..

Mat over CLD Tiles inside door...

A quick way to make a template to cut the mesh...

I'm running out of Mat; there is a layer of Mat + some CLD Tiles behind the inner wall that we don't see here, I'm trying to save the extra thickness that all these layers make so putting back the panel will not be as painful. And 3 layers of Mat behind where the speaker goes, remember these doors become speaker boxex now for the Mid-bass speakers (I still have to go back to the right door and finish it similar to this door).

It's nice to have the opportunity to drive with the door in different stages, naked is LOUD, and as I progress it tends to be less LOUD, but as it is right now there is a deafening noise that really bothers my left ear after 1 hour of commute.

I don't really need to cover everything, just covering and filling openings. A layer of MLV will go on top after some Ensolite and some CCF over the MLV.

Excellent job! Aren't the holes in the doors just HUGE?!?! So you pulled the whole wire harness out of the door and body? I didn't even attempt that! Pulled my new wires through the rubber loom with a coathanger, tape and lube. Maybe 10 minutes of cussing (per door) to get it done.

Thanks,
I did try that too, but I had no success, it was easier for me just to pull everything out.

I really envy you guys who are taking the time to run all that sound deadening material. I was too lazy to do that. The Yaris is a noisy little beast. Sound dampening really helps. It's a pain in the ass, but you will be glad you did it when it's all over.

Nice photo of your car. I like the colors, and the nice DoF. Good composition too. Nice clean background with the trees. Good exposure.
The only distracting element is that pole behind your car. A few minutes with the clone brush would take care of that!

That install diagram gives me wood. A 4-way system with four separate amps, components, and a capable HU to control it all.
The result: phenomenal sound!

derickveliz2 · 06-10-2010, 05:34 PM

Thanks A.M.,
Yes it's hard
Time consuming
and it's not cheap

I have a passion for photography and every time I have the opportunity I try to give a little special touch. Thanks

Yes the diagram is a 4-way system, same as sqcomp but in English should be phenomenal sound!. after all it's a Pioneer! jeje

sqcomp · 06-11-2010, 12:28 AM

Bah!

Carrozzeria all the way! LOL! Oh! I've got a system diagram for you guys!

This is Jon Acton's work, he's my man for the diagram.

That looks awesome,

I know the amount of work that goes into graphics [Hey that's kind of what I do at work]. Once I get done with deadening and sound system upgrade I'll make my own diagram. Very similar to yours but only one battery, One 10" Kicker Solo-Baric woofer, 6 inch mid-bass instead of 8 inches, 3 inc mid-range instead of 4, a smaller Pioneer Premier Tweeter and my amps are Pioneer and not as big as yours! in other words mine is a smaller version of your system but in English. Jeje

I rather have my HU say "CARROZERIA" instead of "Pioneer"

Looks GOOD!
