After getting my cut outs I have realized that I can't hear!!!! Will 90 sq feet of material be enough to cover the floor twice and the back panel once?

Yes...

What about the doors? You should have enough for all of it.

I used 56sqft. on the floor(1 layer), back panel, and doors.

*** Caution ***
If you cover the vent holes in the back wall, be prepared to shut off the pass. side airbag. You could blow an eardrum if you were in an accident.

Covering the holes certainly does make it quieter. But then again, without eardrums, it wouldn't matter.... I covered mine.

Where can one get this material? I'm about to go deaf from reverberation.

I'm not sure if they are the cheapest, but www.crutchfield.com carries it.

I got mine from www.mmxpress.com

That was the best price I could find.

I bought the super and used 2 boxes of 39 sq feet. I did one layer on the floor, back wall, and roof. I bought the vents that are shipped with the trucks that go to Mexico. They are solid with no holes. My truck is very quiet now. I have to crack the rear slider when using any of the heat functions or the truck has a whistling sound.


Here is a pic
