umm i have a few pdf files that can helpjust when removing stuff mark it with painters tape where you took it off from. that way putting back together is a snap. plus you learn about your XB. that dynomat stuff work great. not sure about tc4me's stuff but she can tell you about that. lol

That would be cool...learning more about my box. Next is to do some fun wiring LOL got hardwire LED's and need to figure out how to install a switch so I can get those installed.
Got the HVAC Neowedge LED's today, so going to change those to blue. Our new gauge cluster should be here soon....LED's in gauge have been changed, but need the cluster overlay so it shows blue...not green....

edead also makes a paint on deadener, you can apply it as thick or thin as you like, may be easier than the other stuff, I don't know, never messed with any of it, but need to do it sometime.

Edead Liquid Deadner FTW!!
works great... actually i put it on over a layer of dynamat... made quite a bit a difference...maybe because i could paint the nooks and crannies that i couldnt reach with dynamat sheets
maybe a 1-2 punch sheet sound deadener and liquid top coat...
gave Brain the 1/2 gallon or so i had left over... he turned the tC trunk into a smurf
