insulating under cab mats

[samk]

Thanks for the tips.

Looks like i'll go with the stuff covkid used - thought this was the best option for me but wanted to double check it would go under the cab mats! I'll be adding to the doors to and any panels I can get to at the moment. All with covering of flashband first to reduce on vibration noise.

Cant wait to do it now! shame I cant b bothered o try and take the kitchen units out - form what i've heard it's an absolute nightmare in an Autohomes

Actually it's not; or rather it is, but fitting everything all back properly is relatively simple, gives you a great sense of satisfaction, and means you can pull the lot out again every time you have nightmares about the rust hidden behind the fridge... Mine is now out and back in less than an hour.

oh no Fozzie, dont say that!! Gong to lay new tiles over the next few days and was going to work around the units - even though i know it would look a lot better with the units out.

How did you remove yours and do you have to take the bed system out too?

It would be good to do at some point so I could check the state of the panels back there

p.s looks like i'll be snooping around your electrics and unit construction system then at some point soon!

Have to agree on removing units as it does give you access to areas that may need attention (or slowing down) - particularly any corrosion on the inside of the panel opposite sliding door. Sadly many campers will be up for major repairs in this area due to being hidden from view for so long. Not a massive undertaking to treat or repair any corroded sections but even if you don't tackle it, at least you'll be aware of it and can slow down progression vith Vactan. As said by Fozzie, get familiar with the way units are fitted in and insulate properly in the process. On my DIY interior, units are fitted with wing nuts out of sight so I can pull them out for extra seating etc when not needed as a camper.

Either way, if you're going to insulate, do it properly - you'll feel the difference.
