Default VetteNuts Insulation Kit SALE $99 Shipped!

Sale extended thru Sunday the 15th of Feb.!!









Please choose from coupe, Vert or Z06/FRC when ordering.



The C5 Pre-cut Insulation kit comes with everything you need to insulate and provide sound deadening in your Corvette, including Pre-cut pieces for your doors.

Other kits on the market provide a similar product, but do not provide pre-cut pieces for your doors and storage bins, which allow road noise to be present in your front and rear cabin. Our kit gives you everything you need to COMPLETELY insulate your C5 Corvette.

Our kit is a non-fiberglass, non-asphalt based product which weighs in at 3.5 lbs, for those who are weight conscious, it rejects 97% of the radiant heat, and has a manufacturer's rating of 19db of sound and road noise reduction!!! (please see the notes below on this... )
It is only 3/16" thick, so as not to interfere with proper mounting of your panels and seats, and all holes are pre-cut & all pieces are clearly labeled for your convenience.
It is our #1 goal to provide you ease of install, while making a HUGE improvement in your overall enjoyment of your Corvette!!!
Each kit is hand cut to our specifications, and guaranteed to make a dramatic difference in your C5!!!


Each kit comes with the following pieces:
  • Driver & Passenger front floorboard pieces, with holes cut for seat bolts and pedals.
  • Driver & Passenger side tunnel pieces, cut around your e-brake.
  • Full center console pieces, with holes for the center console bolts.
  • Driver & Passenger side Door Panel pieces.
  • Full Cargo area floor pieces.
  • Full Side rear wheel well pieces.
  • Full back wall and corner pieces.
  • Full Center Well pre-cut pieces.
  • Extra pieces for odds and ends coverage that you may need.

Say goodbye to over-heated center consoles, and noisy front cabins!! Our C5 kit is the perfect addition to your C5, and is recommended for every Corvette owner as the #1 modification for their Corvette!!!
Your Corvette will be cooler in the summer, a lot less noisy, and you will regain use of your center console once again.

A lot of research and development has gone into this kit, and we are proud to say that our kit is made to our demanding specs, in house, and cut off of our own templates.

Some have emailed and asked, so here is a picture of the material, as well as some specs on the material itself:

It has 5 layers, and though it is rated at a 19db drop in noise, my customers have tested it in the Vettes at 8-11 db. reduction. Here are some manufacturer specs on it:





Characteristics | Value | Regulation
Cell Structure: Closed
Nominal Thickness: 5 mm (+ or - 0.5mm)
Steam Permeability: 0.033 gr/m2hkPa ASTM E-96
Noise Insulation: 19dBA IRAM 4063 at 50hz.
Flame Spread Index/Class: 25 or less/ "A" - Class 1 0 ASTM E-84
Smoke Index/Class: 450 or less/ "A" - Class 1 15 ASTM E-84



INSULATION LAYERS

Aluminum Foil
polyethylene backing
closed-cell Polyethylene foam

Aluminum Foil

Pictures of the kit installed in a C5 vert are below.














*Premium Kit*

Upgade to our #1 selling kit today and save $60.


When you want to do all you can to insulate your Vette look no farther!

Two Kits Pre Installed together for Maximum Sound Deadning

Here is another great Insulation package from VetteNuts. It is a peel and stick Ensolite IUO insulation material pre installed on top of our Foil Kit. When these two kits are combined together it will come as one kit. Road noise inside your Vette is drastically reduced along with a 10 to 14db drop in cabin noise. We also provide some scrap material for you to use anywhere you like!

The Ensolite was designed by NASA for the space program.This is a very high grade foam/adhesive combination that will handle high heat, is fire retardant just like regular IUO. It resembles a wet suit material. This kit will make a huge difference in heat and road noise while adding only 9lbs to your Vette for both kits.

Vettenuts has sold 1000's of these kits and there is lots of reviews on Corvetteforum.com.




This kit includes the following pieces:



  • LH and RH Tunnel
  • LH and RH Kick Panels (Foil Kit Only)
  • LH and RH Under Seats
  • Lh and RH Doors
  • Center Console and Shifter
  • Pre Cut Sections for Manual Shifter Box
  • Behind the Seats (Riser)
  • Rear Cargo Floor
  • LH and RH Fender Wells
  • Rear Bumper Wall Sections
  • Extra Material to Install in small areas of your choice
  • Corner Cubby Compartments
We do not include the kick panel sections in Ensolite. This makes the area to thick to reinstall the plastic kick panels when using both kits.


The manual cars will include the templates for your shifter box.

so it's 299 for the premium kit which includes both? Hmmmm the 99 one looks very tempting. Not sure if the other 200 would be worth it.

The Premium kit is worth every extra dollar you spend on it. The $99 kits does great by itself as well, the Ensolite cost us 2x what the foil cost and thats why it $200 more. You will be happy with either kit, just a question of what you feel comfortable spending.

The premium will be a job to add after the fact. I would recommend doing it all at once. When ordering the Premium kit it comes as one kit. When you add it later its very difficult to apply properly, it can be done but will be difficult. Below is a picture of the Premium Kit.

I see the weight of the kit is 3.5 lbs.
What is the full weight of the premium kit (i.e., basic +premium).
Also, why do you sell foil tape as an add-on, if the kit you sell has everything in it?

Premium kit weighs 9lbs.

You need to tape the seams to install. If you look at the pictures of the premium kit you will see the foil tape.
