Both of which were major improvements and worth the time / effort. I've bought the recommended speakers but haven't installed them yet. The 2addicts site recommends sound deadening (e.g. dynamite extreme and/or closed cell foam) behind the speakers, in the trunk, and in the doors (which need to be apart to install speakers). The tire noise is pretty loud to me, and I would like to cut it down, but only if there's a major improvement that would be worth the weight of that stuff (10 - 30 pounds, depending on thickness and where you use it). I'm not worried about every ounce like some folks, but I don't want major bloat for minor gain. Seems to me that with a car with so little sound insulation overall, it'd might still be loud if you dynamited it and you'd regret adding the weight. But I don't have first hand experience and am just speculating. People in the know, what are your thoughts?
thanks in advance
