Dynamat Install and Removal and Installation of Door Trim

I was sick of my doors rattling everywhere over the slightest bump and buzzing when a song with bass came on, so I decided to install some Dynamat. I would highly recommend it for anyone with an older car especially if you have a decent sound system or hate road noise.

How to Install Dynamat on an S15 Silvia:

 1. Remove bottom screws

 2. Remove side screws

3. Remove side screws

4. Remove cover from handle and screw beneath


5. Remove cap and screw beneath

6. Remove cover


7. Gently pull door trim as shown - try to pivot around the tweeter

8. Remove switch from trim by gently prying off the clip

9. Unscrew the following


10. Remove plastic lining and glue - solvents may be required

11. Clean all surfaces that will have Dynamat applied

12. Mock up and "dry" fit the Dynamat - try using masking tape to hold in place while minor adjustments are made.
13. Cut through the Dynamat to allow cables through

14. Using a nail or similar, poke holes through Dynamat to where screws etc need to be placed

15. Repeat for the upper section -  avoid applying Dynamat near moving components (e.g. locking mechanism)

16. Re-install all components
