Maybe hearing loss, but never found the need to insulate the floor or parts thereof…

Bob,

i used inexpensive  non-adhesive sound insulation mat on the interior of my=
 TR6. I laid it on the floors and trans tunnel and put the carpeting down o=
n top of it. I am very pleased with the results. It can be removed very eas=
ily if desired.

I put down soundproofing last year when I installed new carpeting. It also
served as a good backing for the new carpet. Very happy with the results.

Several years ago I installed self adhesive foil to the underside of the
transmission cover. It held okay but heat and the elements caused some of
it to detach.

Hope the replies you received helps your decision.
