Default TKO sound deadening mats

I just received a set of TKO sound deadening mats and installed them in a couple of minutes. The change in noise level was clear from the moment I started the engine. The mats completely eliminated the annoying drone I had previously endured at highway speeds. You can now hear the radio well at 75mph (and see how bad the Bose Premium radio really is). The rear mat really looks beautiful in the trunk and is cut to fit perfectly. I am completely satisfied. This product is all it was claimed to be and more.

That's a good idea. Do you sell the behind the seat pieces individually?

Sorry my friend, they are made & get cut as a set. So I can't break them up.
However any reason you would only want just the seat panels?
If its because you have a lloyds cargo mat...no problem, toss it right over the cargo Blockit.
If its because you have a compartment, the Blockit mat fits under it.

Thanks

The Cargo mat is not that thick (about 3/8") but can be compressed. Using the Lloyd mat on top of the Blockit actually helps suppress even more noise

Yes we are right here in Malverne LI.
So you can come by if you want. Unfortunately we don't do local show.
However we will be at Carlisle. .

I installed mine last month. Nice product. It looks nicer installed than the photos may show.

I had to laugh about it the other day though. Being new, the material had the slightest familiar smell to it. NOT BAD, NOT AN ODOR, just like anything else new. I swear when I got into the car the other day, it smelled just a little bit like some "cigarettes" I smelled at a recent rock concert I thought, man, if I get pulled over, I think the LEO may think I was smoking something.

Because its a barrier I'd have to think it would help with heat however I personally have not tested it for heat and or have an "R" rating or anything.....but I will.

Not pre cut yet. However we are gong to be selling our material in uncut form so you can use it anywhere soon too !
