Waiting on B-Quiet...Whats the best process

[mally002]

I ordered the B-Quiet Ultimate to line my floors and doors. My carpet came today, however the B-Quiet won't be here until next week. Once I install the B-Quiet do I just lay the carpet over it, or tach it down. Also does there need to be a barrier between the carpet and the B-Quiet?

Any hints or tips would be appreaciated.

Thanks,

Randy

:knockedou I took by Z to a rolling shell and used the ultimate over the interior. You need to have cleaned the surface of dirt and dust and if there is ANY rust . This should be taken care of . I personally used POR 15 . I used proxy 80 feet of the stuff. I used it inside the doors on the outer skin and on the inside of the rear fenders as far as I could reach. I also used it on the inside of the plastic trim panels . On the floors and firewall I covered them all and especially the underside of the cowl. I used the stock horse hair matting over the firewall and trans tunnel . On the floors I used a product I bought from JC Whitney that is used for under the hood or for Marine use . I comes in a roll 36'' X 72'' . It is foil on one side and a insulating material on the other. It's about 3/8s to 1/2'' thick . This stuff covers the rear hatch area and the foot wells . By covering the inner fenders and doors the drum effect is mostly eliminated. I also used ultimate inside the rear hatch . The stuff is easy to use and can be cut with heavy duty scissors or a razor knife. You will find that it is a peal and stick and once it is in place it is there to stay. Good product. Gary:cheeky:

Thanks Gary,

I'll let you know how it turns out. Was your car the yellow one I found during a search? It looked good.

I put a bunch of Bquiet down on my car before laying in the carpet. I don't have anything between the carpet and the Bquiet stuff (except for the jute backing). While I glued down the carpet on tunnel, the carpet under the foot area does slide around. It might be nice to put down some velcro or something to keep the carpet in place. You probably ran across my post about the Bquiet install I did last year.

Mike,

That was your post I was looking at, man what a job it looked perfect. I hope to be putting mine in next Thurday, hope it turns out as well as your's.

I don't know if it is because of the J C Whitney pad that I used on the floor over the Be Quiet material , but my carpet stays put . I haven't attached either in any way. I did use spray adhesive on the trans tunnel and fire wall to adhere the OEM jute , but that was the only place . My thought is that in case I do spill something on the floor , I can easily remove all and clean and dry the area. Gary

I too am waiting for the B-Quiet Ultimate to arrive. I hope to have it all installed before the end of January. I did replace the hooks on the floor pans to keep the carpets in place. I will also put the snaps back on the firewall. I also saved the oem jute for the trans tunnel and fire wall will glue it back in place.
