Re: Hood Insulator kit

What's it made out of? That would help determine what adhesive to use. Also do you have a link to where you bought it? It would be nice to see a picture or ad for it.

Re: Hood Insulator kit

It's made of a foam rubber, that goes between the hood and the braces to keep the hood from moving. Bought it from LMC

Re: Hood Insulator kit

I looked up those in the LMC catalog. My best recommendation would be 3M automotive weatherstripping adhesive. With that stuff you know they'll stay put.

Re: Hood Insulator kit

Yall need to go to any auto parts store and get a spray can of 3M Extra Strength Adhesive.....aerosol can that you will spray the hood panel and the foam insulator then lay it down in place. Make sure you get it in place under the reinforcement braces on the hood before you apply adhesive...otherwise it will be a mess to get under them.
