you can also get stuff from b&q that does the same thing,
Its a self adhesive bitumen backed tape, its similar to brown bread etc but its cheaper, does the job nicely

its called aquaseal flashing tape - its the peasent version of Dynamat sound deadening material - works though!

Just make sure youre interior if formly screwed down though to stop any annoying rattles!

My boot floor/ inside of new rear quarters, in side boot lid/rear door and under car is covered with 19 rolls of brown bread sound deadening, expanding plummer foam.
Be very careful with the foam, make sure all inside trim out, seat belts & wind ups covered in plastic with no holes. This stuff can pop out wings, make bulgs in pannels (bit same size as hand will go atleast 4times as big in 24 hours!) U can really F**K up your car if not carefull!

with two JL audio subs (the old W6 one old demo subs!) in at audio centre with a big Audio ban 2k RMS amp, only thing to rattle apart from my eye balls was the fiberglassed (broken & lose) bumper mount & one passenger door pin!
Oh fuel tank been foamed in place too!

Other wise it will rattle (it's an old car, new ones loads better for sound!Unless SPL it and that is loads of weight and looks s**t!).

Hope helped Brown bread well cheap on line and ok price from maplin stores!
