Full interior strip down and sound deadening

[Crash Bandicoot]

Another post here for anyone with questions about this process or similar.

 

I’m stripping out the interior completely to fit dodo dead mat sound deadening, route any aftermarket wiring, gauges neater and in way of doing a full interior alcantara covering.

 

The dodo dead mat and tools have cost a total of about £200.

 

The alcantara material from Martrim will

Come in at about £600 including adhesives etc.

 

I found that the dash, as daunting as it seems comes out really easily, but I think that it will be the hardest piece to get right when covering with the alcantara.

 

Here are some photos of the process.

Nice job, mine has all this too and was a nightmare of a job but so worth it in the end

I found fitting the sound deadening quite therapeutic, although cleaning panels before applying it as I went was rather painful with a billion ‘paper cuts’ from the sound deadening edges! How much of a difference has yours made to road noise etc Ric?

Yeah it's loads quieter. Don't forget the roof too. Makes a lot off difference

Nice work

 

I would recommend to anyone wanting to do this to invest in a load of ziplock bags, so that all the fittings and fasteners etc can be bagged and tagged.

Completely agree, the only reason I haven’t done this is because I’m on my 6th odd strip down and know where everything goes. A worthwhile comment that!
