Is it a metallic clunking noise?

It sounds fairly heavy, but not metallic, though.
Hope you get to the bottom of the sound mudnut.
Westy, hope you haven't bought any fatmat yet. I haven't had any dramas with it yet, but after doing the job, I've then decided to read reviews online and there aren't many fans of the stuff. Apparently it's an asphalt based product that will deteriorate after time and in heat tends to fall off. Apparently it's produced in the same factory that makes a product called peel and seal which is a roofing product that can be bought for very cheap at hardware stores. They've just printed a blue logo onto this stuff and raised the price. I'll let you know how this stuff holds up during summer, if I don't decide to rip it out and replace it with the "proper" butyl product such as dynamat extreme.
Nice patrol you got there. Keep up the good work :)
Have removed the dash again and removed the fatmat. Am very disappointed with this product. Have read posts of people using it in the US and in the heat the stuff just drips down the panels and becomes a horrible mess. Well I used a hair dryer to remove the stuff and sure enough it is not stable in heat what so ever. It just became a sticky gooey mess. But it's all gone now and am in the process of installing dynamat.
I took a photo of the dash assembly to show how it's constructed. It's basically a steel frame with padding on the top. The frame does vibrate and flex a lot when tapping it from the inside so I will be dynamating the inside of the dash.

Putting it all back together again. Good opportunity to put new foam on the ducting as the old foam was non existent.
