Owing to having wet/rotting sound proofing in the footwells (quite common I believe) I ripped it out and filled the voids with kneeling pads I bought from a garden centre and layed camping roll foam on top. Not very pretty but does the job and not visible when the mats are down.

One of this years projects is to make some floor boards from plywood and do away with the foam completely.
 
Hi steve,

ok I see, I suppose the floor may be easyer than the back part , I would love to strip the original to save weight, but I need to replace it as it is a family car and we use it time to time for long trips, cup, by pass , ITG foam filter and R888s makes it very noisy arround 5k

this stuff looks good, if you've still got the black "tar" layer on the metal this stuff could go straight on i think, otherwise you need a mass damper layer under it.

generally you need a closed cell foam with a proper fire rating to avoid the sponge effect and poison smoke in case of fire.

apparently new noise barriers are thinner and more effective that the 80's factory stuff.
