Carpet / padding options for a quiet ride

What kind of carpet / padding setup would you recommend for a quiet ride? I want to go with the molded carpet, but what would you recommend putting under it to keep the sound at a minimum? What about the firewall?

Thanks!

They have mass loaded vinyl and jute already on the carpet when you order it as an add on.

I also sprayed 2 gallons of scorpion (al's liner if you diy) which is a lot like Line-X and put down the 1/8" foil backed foam. under the carpet. I also sprayed the underside of the cab with 2 gallons of the bedliner. When you knock on the bottom of the cab you barely hear a thud in the cab

I used B Quiet under my carpet ...

I wanted quiet and heat deterrent.

I purchased mine off ebay ...

Re: Carpet / padding options for a quiet ride

I put Dynamat in mine. Started on the back wall of the cab and covered everything all the way to the firewall. I lined the cab corners too behind two 6 x 9 speakers. Lined inside the doors too.
