[FRENCHBLUE72]

Who has this installed on there ride I know I should have asked before I bought it but....... I know I have heard people on here rave about please chim in guys and let me know the secrets of the install if there are any...

I just put in Dynamat on the floor of my burb, they are pretty close in comparison I think.

Trick is to do it on a hot sunny day, it will make it more flexible to form.

I plan on installing more of the stuff, but it is so expensive I can only afford to do a section at a time.

110 sq feet of fat mat cot me 130 shipped.... And Its 102 here today sooooo it should be pretty flexable..

I have used it in a couple of installs. It works great on the floors but on a vertical suface if does stick so great. I could be because it was not cleaned good enough i did clean the panel. I would buy it again.

I used it on my cab floor and it worked great. Probably would have even gone on even easier if I didn't do it when the garage was 50 degrees, but it went on fine.

I used it on my square body as well, worked fine and went on really easy.

I put Fat mat in my 94 swb and it is not that hard at all. The key is to spend your time getting the surface as clean as possible. It killed alot of road noise.

Can FatMat or DynaMat be used under the hood?? Would it help reduce noise?

Sorry for resurrecting an old post.

I think they both sell stuff specifically for the engine compartment.

I used it on the floor and sides of my Blazer before installing carpet and side panels. Very easy to install and really reduced road/exhaust noise. I don't think it would work well in the engine compartment. When it gets warm/hot the tar backing gets soft and it may peel off the underside of your hood under its own weight. There are other products for the engine compartment.

My boys did the entire cab and doors with fat mat, easy to use, great product and price!

It looks like your Blazer is occasionally exposed to the elements. Is there any concern with water getting into or under it?

I put in the interior and under the hood. However, I've only driven it a couple short trips, but it seems to be quieter. I'm happy with it.

I used it on my floors and doors of my Challenger. Someone on the mopar board told me that he installed it on his roof and in the heat it came unglued and fell onto his headliner. If it isn't warm where you are, then use a small heater in the cab to warm the mat and a hairdryer when rolling it on the floorboards

Once I start driving her this summer I'll have to see if it starts falling off the underside of the hood.
