How much sound proof/deadner

[super72bb]

Hi all,

I am planning to do a full installation of dynamat in my cab and I am wondering how much to order? Can anyone give the square footage of the cab? I cant measure it myself as I am overseas at the moment. I would like to cover all of the floor, and back of the cab etc.

Thanks in advance.

I just did my entire cab with gas tank removed. I used 56 sq ft.

I bought 75 sq ft to make sure I had enough. I sold the 21 ft I didn't use to a friend. Better to have a little too much than not enough!

That sounds about right. I did my entire 65 mustang floor, firewall, inner doors, inner quarters, and trunk floor - minus gas tank (big part of trunk floor in mustangs) with full coverage and it took the full 75 sf. I did not do the roof, car was already restored and I didn't want to pull down the nice headliner.

50 feet of Fat Mat covers nicley.

I used more because I did the inside of the cab corner areas and also the kick panel area as I see you did not.

I went to the local stereo shop today and he said other than the floor to put strips in it. I did the back cab wall so far and the corner pockets. It seemed to help with the stereo sound which is my main goal. I bought enough to do the floor and both doors. He said do four seperate peices in each door.
4 corners and a center in each. I will do the whole floor later along with the doors. I plan to get it as high into the upper door as I can which cutting it into 4 peices will help installing it I hope.
There is no way to get it into the roof area so I will have to live with that I guess.

Thanks everyone. This gives me a good guideline.

Does the 50 sq ft include the doors too?
