Soundproofing on the cheap

thats very interesting! Keep the tips coming.
To supress road noise which is amplified by chambers or wheel houses, I use that self expanding foam.
But knowing that you never will get it out again, and it is a moisture trap.
To avoid these disadvantages I use plastic (freezer)bags, which are thicker than the average bags. You can fill them and adapt the form to the inner sheet metal, avoiding the mess and keep them off attracting moisture.
Road noise from the rear wheel housings is greatly reduced.

I put the stuff from lowe's everywhere but the firewall and it made a difference. They also had a sheet of green egg carton like insulation and I put some of that between the roof and the headliner. My next project is to put as much deadener on the firewall without having to pull the dash.
