RIDICULOUS,I KNOW anyone ever use dynomat under a convertible top

i live in a real hot area and with the top up its still noisy. could you use dynomat or other product unnder the conv top and build up a non ugly type of headliner that cuts down heat and noise. i know you would have to cut sections where the folds are...if ridiculous just post that ill get it,marty

 

I think you may want to consider trading in for a hardtop car.

 

^^^^^ Uhhh, what he said... ^^^^^

 

Dynamat when used on sheet metal stops the vibration that causes unwanted noise. (kind of like a large speaker). Dynamat alone or attached to a soft surface will offer little to no sound deadening capabilities.

I wouldn't do it.

My 04 mustang has an internal "curton/top" it helps with noise, but it is not a sound deadenero No:

 

Dyno or some similar sound deadening will help with road noise if installed on the floor and doors... even in a convertible.

I asked my upholsterer about the top... he said he could sew up some additional sound insulation (like on newer cars) but that it wouldn't fold down like it does now.

i was waiting for that

 

I can cut ya the top off my '67 I'm parting out, and you can make a hardtop cover for your car.
My parents live right by Hollywood, FL (actully used to live there) so free shipping!

 

if you do that it might be best to keep it as a convertible is worth more:laugh:

 

Marty--If you decide to install dynomat against the underside of your top, I would appreciate a chance to get down there to see in person what happens the first time the top is put down. :eek2:

 

OK I'll bite. That is ridiculous.

 

At least the replies in this thread were a lot more kind than what I read in another I came across on the same topic...

You can buy a quality convertible top with noise attenuating construction. This why I alway say buy the best tops made.

...it's a convertible, noise goes with the folding fabric top...as for heat...crank up the A/C...and remind yourself why you have a convertible...

 

I know you live in Florida and all, but up here in Canada we put the top DOWN annnnny chance we get!!


Give it a try ;-)
