Has anyone done this before? I'm installing sound deadener tomorrow so I'm stripping down the interior tonight. I got just about everything in the trunk removed. Later on I plan on taking out the seats, carpet and door panels. I also need to remove my A pillars for tweeter installation. Any docs, pdfs or other types of info/linkage would be great.
all i can say after doing a few cars is be SUPER CAREFUL and work slowly on parts with plastic clips (I HATE THOSE THINGS OMG) if you impatient and frustrated just walk away and cool off is what i do it isnt hard just to not break that damn plastic crap takes time plus i hate having to buy more of those from the company

I hear you....at first I was going to get one of those trim ring removal tools from Autozone and decided against it. I bought my car used and there were already some plastic clips missing....So I just picked up a 15 pk of one type of clips and a 6pk of another type...all for less than the trim tool. The ones that hold the carpet down were in a pack of 15 for 3.99. I've done many installs in the past and the clips are always a pain in the ***.

Anything you do will cut down on road noise...plus I hate to have a car that rattles after installing subs. It kills the sound when you have flexing and rattling panels...it sounds like sh*t on the outside. Not to mention doing this will significantly cut down on muffler drone. I'm doing it more for the rattles though.
Thanks for the linkage! I tried searching but couldn't really find anything. I ended up falling asleep instead of taking out my interior lol. I have had sound deadening mat from Second Skin for a while and I'm glad I didn't put it in my last car...so it will find a home in my 'stang. I ordered a couple gallons of Second Skin Spectrum spray to go on top of the mat and in all of the nooks and crannies...especially in the doors. That is being delivered via UPS ground tomorrow. They usually don't come until late afternoon so I'll probably strip my car down early tomorrow morning. It shouldn't take too long. Thanks again for the linkage!
Tell me about it....I got those off...but I'm stuck right now removing the carpet. I got everything out except that. Does anyone know how to get it out? It won't come out from behind the middle below the HVAC stuff..any ideas?
