Wish we did this sooner! Killing road noise with sound deadening mat | VW T4 Camper Van Build 9

This goes into the "I should've done this before anything else" category of camper van build conversions! **UPDATE: After some feedback I will put the edit about how I installed sound deadening and closed cell insulation in the VW T4 Transporter cab in it's own video ** Vans are loud. They're noisy and utilitarian. Built to haul goods and cargo and drive like nutters. But seriously - van are not manufactured to the same comfort levels as cars, so driving them is like driving inside a boom box. Sure you can add cabinets and some insulation, like we did, and still find it's difficult to have a conversation or enjoy your iPod playlists (yes I do still)...I am retro.... After a few long road trips we realised more needed to be done to reduce the road noise inside the van - not just for our comfort but our sanity. We wanted car quiet - we wanted our VW Transporter T4 van to be more like a Golf. It would mean we could feel like we were traveling in a nice big car but with beds and a kitchen and all our surf gear! A comfortable rolling home not built on the verge of a highway. The only solution was remove panels and trim, and install down sound deadening mat from a roll. My advice - do this before you do anything else on your van build. Do it at the beginning before you add insulation. Sound deadening mat is fabulous stuff and will transform the comfort levels of your cargo van into something more like a car. I literally stuck sound deadening everywhere I could in our VW T4 Transporter camper van. And the results were incredible! It quite literally transformed our journeys. We could listen to music - even from those pokey 4" dash speakers we upgraded - and you all know how important music is on a roadtrip right? Plus we could talk or sit in silence watching the landscape roll by without being killed slowly by road noise. Hope you enjoy this video and get inspired to do this upgrade on your van build.
