Even after all LBM has done he himself will be first to admit that he would like to do more.

Yeah it can get addictive. Opened up the door pads again this evening had covered up a few important area's I left out.

I dont even have the ICE yet and after my first round of damping I feel like lining the entire car with the stuff, the engine-wallahs will of course cringe at the thought of the extra weight

It's ok. We don't worry about diesels too much.

Very true sir...I feel like doing more but there is no space left.

In my unending quest to satisfy my thirst for audio nirvana ,
i decided to add damping to my swift. I feel maruti should throw in a couple of damping sheets rather the some of the other freebies they keep offering. So i got in touch with a guy from weurtz india ltd. He himself suggested that the sheets were not as flexible as some of the other brands available in the market . He said most of his customers were people with cars that had been in an accident and were looking for a door job./modification. Now i am really confused . Initially Ajay (b&T) and navin bhai helped me sort out my ICing woes. But i guess that joy was short lived. Can anyone suggest an installer in mumbai who would do a good job of damping at the best price ?? my budget permits me to only go for front and boot damping for the moment. will that suffice ?? I am going to be adding front components anda rear 12 " sub .

LBM, you are definitely insane; in a zany lovable sort of way. :-)

I got my cars damped at Bharat Auto in Worli. I am sure other installers in your neighbourhood would be able to help too but you gotta specify what you want done.

B&T would be able to help you this time around too, he's got stock of some pretty useful material.

You can save a fair bit of $$ by doing the damping yourself. Swift panels are as easy to take off as a piece of clothing at the mardi gras!

Check my thread in the Show off section to see what Iv started with wrt damping.

Wow, thats a lot of damping sir, what is the black thing over the damping on the door panel? is that more damping?

[shuvc]

What should be the damping priority for a Baleno front door? I mean say among,
a - the inside of the door pad
b - the inner metal sheet of the door (to which the speaker is fixed)
c - the outer shell of the door
etc ....

Just trying to identify max bang for buck, since I'm on a budget right now.

Hey Gandolf_the wise,

Wuerth India have two sound deadening sheets they make available in the market. The industrial damping sheet is thicker by a few mm and is less flexible. The auto damping sheet is quite flexible and does stick to curves very well. This has been my personal experience.

A pack of six sheets, with each sheet measuring approx 2'x3' - costs upto Rs 2950/-. In my recent experience with my Indica, I had the front doors, rear doors, trunk & boot damped with these sheets and used up 3 packs of the same.

Distribution was as follows...
Front door - Inner metal frame, Speaker frame & Door liner
Rear Door - Speaker Frame & Door liner
Boot - Under carpet - all through.
Trunk - Two full sheets on metal frame and inner frame as well.

The material was procurred for me by AutoSonics, Blaupunkt dealer in Bandra. Murugesh is the contact at this place ( if that helps )

Having driven several Swifts as well, I kinda believe you will require the same amount of damping as well.

Do PM me if you need any further information.

Cheers to a noise-less ride thereon.!!!

Yes it is the wurth damping.

[s0uljah]

So is it worth wurth damping

It is but installing it is pain. As it breaks when folded and needs a hot air gun to install it properly.
