Noise Dampening with Rear Seat Delete

ThunderMoose · 01-16-2012, 07:03 PM

For anyone that has done the rear seat delete, what if anything did you do to dampen the noise from the rear. It probably won't matter much once I am at the track and I have my helmet on, but man it's friggin noisy just tooling around.

bad ass. i feel you on the noise level. i get grumpy when I have the rear seats folded down. i think my racing cats are part to blame, but those seats provide a lot of road noise insulation from the rear of the car.

maybe some really light ear plugs to filter the worst of it?

Just a simple block off panel helps with the sound but not much. Fall line sells sheets of carbon that you can cut to work or you can make something.
