Hello everyone,

A dumb question. Which material can I use to replace the compressed fiber insulation that the W123 has under the floor mats?

I'm going to remove the whole insulation because its rotten. I need a cheap option that is as effective as the orinigal material.

Regards

Dynamat may work, but it's not cheap.

Used it on my 99 PSD and it definately helped. They have several types of materials.

If you really want to go cheap - try the felt padding they use under Berber carpets. You can buy it by the yard at your favorite home warehouse or carpet store. Secure with 3M fabric glue spray.

sounds like a mess... If your gonna do that might as well just pour concrete. That will quiet her down ALOT.
