#11902, "tips on using dynamat"


          

i started dynamatting i startd in the hatch. i ripped out the spare tire stuff with a large ball peen hammer using the flat side some vise grips and a flat head screw driver. just banged and pulled and chiseled till i got it all out. have a coupl holes in the floor but no biggy cause of dynamat. so anyhow i didn't take the panels around the back off i just covered all the silver stuff. (my cars silver) i'm guessing i need to go under the panels seeing how much (little) of a difference it made. so how do i take the rear paneling off. i don't think it's just the screws on the floor and is there anything i need to watch for like thelights back there and what not. please help car has frame damage and ride is NOISEY!!!!!!!!

do you mean the middle back piece where your tailights screws are? you just pull it off and then the sides have like 5 screws or so... dont remember but if your dynamating do the plastic so it weighs it down it will work better...

the sides i don't think was a problem, just unscrew. For the middle one, best way i found was to sit in the hatch, and kind of pull toward you, try to get your hands underneeth it and up as high as possible and just pull hard towards you. thres a couple big clips holding it in the middle(facing perpendicular to the sky) and about 4 smaller ones on top(facing the sky). Sorry, not to good at explainig emoji. Its gonna take some muscle.
As for the dynamat, i hope you hava a decent heat gun, cause it takes a while for the stuff to heat up, and you want it to be like almost melting for best results, and use a roller to make it stick even better.
hope that helps
