Bought some fatmat(similar to dynamat) off eBay and installed it into the rear of the gq. First I cut them into strips and stuck this to the inside of the quarter panels. I found when tapping the quarter panels from the outside, it sounds very hollow and tinny, but with this stuff installed, it sounds nice and solid. Most of the wheel arches and side panels are covered, will finish the floor off tomorrow and see how much of a difference it had made.

Yea be interested to hear your thoughts. Had some people tell me don't bother.
Others have said it works, then some say do 2 layers.. Might get the 100sq ft package and do inside and out... Lol

I'll let you know. I like the theory of the stuff. I don't think it acts as a sound barrier, but more so is used to become apart of the panel and stops it's ability to vibrate. When tapping the wheel arches from inside the car, they already sound solid and I was skeptical as to whether I should cover them, but I did anyway. But panels that return a hollow tinny sound should benefit greatly from this stuff. Large flat panels such as the insides of doors and the rear quarter panels will benefit I'm thinking.

One day when my Patrol is not my daily I will gut the interior and go to town with sound deadener.... been for a ride in a GQ full of it and it makes a big difference!

Interested to know how much it weighs .
Also does it absorb water? As the rear window rubbers do allow some water into the quarter

Scrub bars,side steps, winch rope and fairlead put on, and hopefully UHF fixed with no static noise from alternator.

You can stuff acoustic batts inside the Quarter panels makes a huge difference as well.
Don't buy full bag see if they have broken bags you can buy.
