This is just the beginning, I made a little video clip to show how CLD tiles work.
In the rear quarter panels I applied 2 CLD Tiles to one side check it out!

[NOTE] So far I have found 1 or 2 OEM tiles of deadening from Toyota, one on the right quarter panel and it's dry and cracking, I'm going to take it down, and put another 2 CLD Tiles.

damn! I was moving gingerly around those C-pillars simply because of the airbag option in my sedan...

...I've been trying to find someone who has taken the pillars off and dropped the headliner with that airbag option.

Looks like I'll be the one to guinea pig this one...

derickveliz2 · 03-06-2010, 01:28 AM

Huuuh that is a tuff call.

sqcomp · 03-06-2010, 01:34 AM

Oh, the call is already made. I just have to be careful so as not to impede the operation of those airbags.

30 someodd days until I hit US soil...after the demobilization...this car is going to be transformed.

derickveliz2 · 03-08-2010, 10:27 AM

Huuh!!! GOOD for you man! only 30 days, can't wait to see you put your hands in your Yaris.

BTW... how did you deal with the vent in the trunk, now that I'm driving without any carpet or back seats (it's very noisy) I can hear a lot of noise coming from that little vent. For example when I switch from fresh air to circ.

I know this has been in other threads but I wonder if there a creative way to take care of this and not loose it's function.

sqcomp · 03-08-2010, 11:55 AM

I've got everything back in. with all the deadening in the cabin, the only noise I get is from the windows really. Once the amprack and sub enclosure is in, the trunk vents will no longer be any issue at all.

derickveliz2 · 03-09-2010, 11:10 AM

I spent 3 hrs last night, most of the time in the trunk and quarter panels. Applying the vibration dampeners (CLD Tiles) on the small flat surfaces covering about 25-35% of the area to stop the vibrations.

This morning my ride was not as loud. It's incredible to feel the difference, the rear end fills more solid, I can't wait to put on the Foam and the Vinyl to block the noise. I made my own scale to qualify the level of noise, been 10 the loudest (no rear seats, no rear trim panels nothing in the trunk. and 1 been in idle at a stop sign. EOM is right in the middle 5 (this is my own scale for reference only)

So yesterday noise level was at 10, today was at 9 and I found something very particular...

At highway speeds I hear a butterfly noise + road noise, very loud in the back (noise level 9), it's the air valve on the left side of the car at the rear quarter panel. if I close the circulation air the road noise goes away but the flapping gets worst (noise level 8).

Then I tried to open the front right window just a little bit, the road and butterfly noise goes away,(noise level 7) very interesting, I'm going to have to do something about this valve.

I went under the car and looks like I'm going to apply CLD Tiles to the metal sheet that is in front of this valve, also I was thinking in doing a small partition with MLV (Mass Loaded Vinyl) and CCF (Closed Cell Foam) with a small acoustical box inside the trunk, to block that noise. (this way I can practice cutting and gluing the MLV)

(I know I'll have some other issues once the sound waves of the sub-woofer travel around the trunk, but I can't take out the purpose of this valve away, I have a 3 year old son and I don't want to smash his ears every time we close the door; I don't know now what will happen, we'll figure out as we go)

Lets see how it goes.

Back to work...

derickveliz2 · 03-10-2010, 10:46 AM

Ok, so I spent another 3 hours list night again. My wife is not very happy I went to bed around 2:30am. This is something I'm really enjoin!!!

I applied more CLD Tiles to the trunk floor, under the back seat and trunk lid. In some sections I put extra RAAMmat BXT, now I'm thinking more speaker like so I end up covering most of the holes and putting it over joins and some corners not to kill vibrations on the metal but to help with acoustics.

For the air valve I taped a small piece of packing foam right in front of the vent, and that made a huge difference.

Noise level this morning was at 6, very impressive.

Where you plan on putting that 3.5 ? And what kind is it ? I have my eye on this powerbass to mount in the c-pillar since i plan on doing away with my 6x9's all together.

They are Rockford Fosgate Punch P132C 3-1/2", got them cheap at

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...nch+P132C.html

I also got a bass blocker for them.

They will be installed in the rear deck where the 9x6 where. Letting the bass from the sub-woofer travel through the cabin.

_S7V7N_ · 03-10-2010, 11:40 AM

Yeah i seen that Capacitor " bass blocker " tied into the side, i was wondering if that came with the speaker. Nice price and name brand

Lolll....I'd be scared to send my 3.5 flying off with all the pressure i plan on having comming out of my trunk. I plan on putting it in the c-pillar facing somewhat forward if possible. i think the cutout is something like 3.125, so not a Huge hole.

No it's not in the picture, this is what I got

Stinger SGJ92 Bass Blocker 0-600Hz

I'm looking forward to see you installation, did you started yet?

I'm also going to use this for the speaker at the rear deck:

derickveliz2 · 03-11-2010, 10:41 AM

2 hours of work last night, and I did finish the Trunk lid. Even dough Don (from sounddeadenershowdown.com) suggested me to apply only CLD Tiles to the Trunk lid I moved forward and treated as a door, well it's kind of a door and added some layers of CCF and a layer of MLV (man that thing is heavy).

I do have to get a pair of longer plastic holders I don't know how they are called but you push them in to hold the panel, the 2 that go in the center end up too short. I've seen this in other threads, so I guess it's common.

Also did the License plate, one CLD Tile and a layer of 1/4" CCF. NICE!

Noise level was between 5 and 6 but I had 2 boxes one with all the CCF and the other one with CLD Tiles. BUT I did notice something different this time! that my radio was set up to increase the volume as I speed up, I know it was set up but never noticed. It got to be the noise level or me putting more attention to every little sound.

I did notice that I don't hear the pipe (OEM muffler) in the rear of the car any more, I hear the engine instead in front. And lots of noise from the doors and floor right under my self.

I need to start laying all the electrical and audio wires before a cover the floor or should I leave them above the MLV and under the carpet?

Lots of work to do...

_S7V7N_ · 03-11-2010, 11:34 AM

Dude them Rear 6x9's were a biatch, i had a reg ratchet with an adapter, the rear screws killed me. I had to rig something together to be able to get the socket in there. I think i scratched my tint a bit, ohh well i wanted to go darker anyways, and it's not noticeable. The c-pillars and carpet was a piece of cake.

sqcomp · 03-11-2010, 02:50 PM

shorty right angle with a low profi socket.

...Hey, S7...get up to Daytona this weekend for the Spring Break Nationals. You want to see sound machines? Go visit the Hybrid Audio groupand prepare to start drooling...

_S7V7N_ · 03-11-2010, 07:33 PM

I knowww, my monday starts on friday though , so no way i'm getting off, i'm fixin to drop my management position...Lolll so i can do some weekend shows.
