Sound and heat deadening under carpets
Can anyone recommend alternatives to the hardura mats which arent as effective in stopping heat especially around the transmission tunnel ? I know that Cool-It and other foil faced products are available, some adhesive backed but I dont know how good they really are.
Any comments anyone?
Ian
