im stripping my interior for a roll bar install and i was wondering if there is any way to get rid of the interior noise when driving. i just want it to be as quiet as posible inside. is there a foam or something?

Yea there is, but it's probably going to be heavy.

You have to decide what is more important. obviously you are puttin ght roll bar in for speed reasons. You are already making the car heavier with that then you add the stuff to make it quiet and you have to understand you are sacrificing more speed. It comes down to what you thinkis more important

I think it would be well worth the 50lbs to have a loud car that is comfertable to drive long distances.

There is spray foam you can buy in a can. If you use it make sure you tape off anything that you don't want foam on...it sticks to everything.

Dynomat extreme is a great way to go. And by the way you could sound proof your entire interior including roof for less than 10lbs. I wouldn't recommend foam, it's pretty damn messy. [ September 08, 2003, 12:40 AM: Message edited by: CustomFastbackCA ]

Ask questions if you have'em, anyone who thinks they're too cool, know's it all, or doesn't want to look stupid has more problems than you.

as said above Dynomat is a damn good way to sound proof and it's not that heavy.
