DIY: How to Soundproof your Vehicle Under $100
I (a previous Audimute Customer) created a short tutorial in how to soundproof your vehicle using Audimute's 3.2mm Peacemaker sound insulation material. This is high quality, low cost way to soundproof your vehicle. Final Cost about $100 to soundproof your trunk, tailgate, and 4 doors. This is a 1-2 day project, depending on the number of hours you'd like to put in to it.

Crutchfield: Reducing Road Noise with Dynamat
In our final installment in the Car Stereo Proving Ground series we examine the effects of Dynamat on sound quality. We have better-than-expected results. The Dynamat greatly reduces noise which in turns makes our music sound more detailed and present.

This is the part 2 video on how to install Dynamat on you hood. This is a great way to both reduce the sound that you hear from the engine and to increase the sound that you hear from your speakers. It also greatly helps to reduce rattles and amplifies bass.
Dynamat: Before and After
I Dynamatted my trunk and doors, and what an improvement. Thanks for watching. BTW-I chose this song because it was one of my favorite songs at the time. If you don't like it, too bad. Go make your own video. (and the cheapest place I've found so far is amazon just in case you're wondering ;)
I disabled comments because too many losers without a life kept leaving stupid comments. GTH. :p
Door Openings and Dynamat

This video shows how to install Dynamat extreme in your whole car. This is a great way to both reduce the sound that you hear from outside the car and to increase the sound that you hear from your speakers. It also greatly helps to reduce rattles and amplifies bass.
1999 Honda Accord Dynamat Install - 1080p.mov
1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, Honda Accord, EX 2 door coupe Dynamat install, how to, take the door panel off, front door speaker install,
Notes*
The same way you take off the 2 door coupe is the same on a 4 door sedan. Basically same install..
Also I installed coaxial speakers not components. Make sure you disconnect the dash tweeters from the car. Very easy to do so. Take a flat head crew driver and push in the middle of the tweeter and pry up. Should just pop right up. Next pull the speaker out fish the wire out a little and unplug.

Dynamat 2007 Lexus ES350 In Depth Before and After Review
I bought a bulk pack of Dynamat (36 sq ft) for my 2007 Lexus ES350 to use in the trunk and the rear deck. This video goes through several songs before and after dynamat as well as the tapping demonstration where I knock on the trunk before and after. NOTE: Dynamat will NOT take all your rattles away as you can see, what it will do is reduce them greatly and increase the sound from your bass instead of it being lost through the trunk and rattling. I highly recommend it for anyone with a subwoofer, my car rattles much less than it used to, especially in the interior, my side view mirrors even shake less just by what I did in the trunk. Also, 36sq ft of dynamat was not enough for the WHOLE trunk but a good part of it, and it is true that if you double or triple layer it it will perform much better than a single layer. I will be uploading an installation video sometime soon so be on the lookout for it. I hope this video helps, I wanted to try and make the best dynamat video of before and after that I can, so ratings and comments are always appreciated! Thanks everyone!
