Hood insulation pad
Does anyone have a handy picture of an installed hood insulation pad? I bought the cut-to-fit kit and I need to see how it's installed.
Thanks!

Re: Hood insulation pad
Fairly straight forward, go all the way to the edge where the inner structure rolls out.

Re: Hood insulation pad
If you're using the aftermarket clips (the huge round things that hold it on) Don't press them in too tightly or if the hood ever gets slammed, the outer skin may hit them and make raised spots you can see from the outside... don't ask how I found out.

Thanks Randy, that's EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thanks for the heads up on the clips, Kenny.

Re: Hood insulation pad
Where did you get the insulation kit from?
Did it help cabin noise any?

Re: Hood insulation pad
Mines from lmc its a cut to fit, I don't know if it really helps on noise but it does keep the top of the hood cooler
