Rear wheel wells in a truck? Like a pickup truck?

For the doors, take the door panels off, take a sheet cut to the shape of the door, cut holes in it for the window controls, the door handles, and the speaker. and just stick it on. not much different than a giant sticker.

Just out of curiosity, where did you get your Dynamat? I got some for my speakers that I installed in the doors of my Suby, but I have decided that I also want to do the trunk but I don't have enough left over and I need to get more.

I spent a fortune to have Dynamat Extreme professionally installed, and I used double the normal ammount of material...makes no noticeable difference to me at all.

MAYBE the Dynapad stuff (foam mat) will make a difference but the dynamat stuff does nothing that I can detect.

Good Luck. (I have over 70 lbs of Dynamat Extreme in my car!)

If you hadn't already ordered it, I would say go with raamat - wheel wells front and back. Just cut it into strips and slap it on.

Here is a great tutorial over at nabisco.
