I have the "extreme" in my car... pretty good. Dunno how it stacks up though.
May be able to find cheaper on ebay.
And of course there's always dynamat, but you did say cheap...

Go to www.mcmaster.com, item# 9709T19 is the same thing as Dynamat and a fraction of the price. You want the Polymeric Mastic.

You don't want the stainless, you want the polymetric mastic under "Adhesive-Back Damping Sheets" It is dynamat without the logo on it.

Search for Peel-n-seal. It's a popular dynamat substitute, 1/50th the cost and just as effective, from what I've read. You buy it at Home Depot, and lots of folks here have had great success with it.

it's called 'frost king' at home depot.
most of the spray on stuff is crap but they have some new stuff that is supposed to be better then any of the stick on sheets out there. I'll try to find out the name of it

Hey
Edead on ebay, 100 square feet is only 100 dollars. Its very comparable to dynomat in everything I've heard, but if youre lookin for the best use dynomat, its what I put in my explorer.

Use peal-n-seal then use liquid nails to apply Hair Pile over that. Cheap as hell and quiet as all get out. Made a HUGE diference in my Matrix. Everyone that gets in my car are amazed at how quiet it is and how solid the doors sound and feel.
