2008 Yaris sedan ‘S’ sound deadening project.

hmmm raammat used to come in like 50ft long rolls... wonder why it's cut into squares now. Different supplier maybe.
Nice trick with the clips....I can't remember how I got those out (it was 2 yrs ago... hehe)

Thanks!

I think that's the "original" version, BXT. The squares do make it easy, but rarely have I used an entire square at one time. Maybe as I get further into the passenger compartment...

I just checked the status of my speaker order and it's already is Sacramento! Looks like I should get all 4 on Monday. C'mon Monday!

unfortunately.... unless you spend $500 or more on an spl meter, any value above about 110-120 just isn't going to be accurate. But.... spl meters, even the cheaper ones are fun toys to play with.

No worries! Like you said, a fun toy to play with. I guess my experiment is more un-scientific, then scientific, but hopefully better than just saying "yeah, that sounds quieter". At least I'll have some numbers to look at.

nice ,and i would 100% agree , at least in your own heart you
know exactly how much noise reduction you have achieved.
hmm until the sterio is turned on
keep the pics coming .

It changed (if I can remember correctly) about the time I got back from my deployment (I think) about a year ago, give or take a few months. They said it was better for shipping and ease of use.
