It takes some time to pull all that carpet up and install that stuff, but after doing it once its not to bad and yeah it does usually fit back down just fine. A little trimming of the CCF and MLV may need to be done near some things but its not a lot of trouble.
So there will be a big quality difference or it will just stink for a while? I live in Washington so my car heating up and it stinking like tar wont be a problem very often. But yeah i know how pulling the carpet can go lol i have pulled the entire interior out of a blazer at a pick n pull looking for my seat wiring. wasnt hard, but i didnt put it back with extra stuff in the way

I wouldn't trust the fatmat to last. Like peal n seal and other inferior products the adhesive wasn't designed to adhere to the smooth metal surfaces. Add heating and cooling cycles to that and they typically don't stay stuck for real long. Even without a lot of heat that asphalt smell will linger in your vehicle for at least a couple of weeks.

No matter what u decide to use just be sure it's an actual automotive product and that its butyl based. I've got a friend who didn't even think to clean the surface on his doors before applying his Second Skin Damplifier Pro. It's been on there over two years and is still very well attached. That just won't happen with a lesser product.

Ohhh yeah i didnt even think about that part.. Well i will probably end up going with Raamat or the Damplifier pro then.

So it looks like i will get the the dampener and the MLV at the same time. then maybe the CCF in the future. Is there any difference between what he is selling or the MLV on amazon or Ebay?

Like this: 1 LB Pound Mass Loaded Vinyl 4' x 25' Rolls

Honestly, I'm not sure how close the products are. If I were you I'd email him the question and the link and see what he says. He's always been super honest with me, even when it cost him a sale, and I figure anyone in that situation who's willing to give an answer that's not going to make them any money is honest to a fault.

There is also a new deadner on the market called Murder Mat. Check it out. It is supposed to be pretty good
