Reduce interior noise in SECONDS by simply dropping in the pre cut BLOCKIT sound deadening mats right over your existing carpet!
This is NOT a thin one layer mat.
The BLOCKIT is a unique 4 infused layer combination of real acoustical soundproofing which measures 1" thick!
It absorbs and suppresses unpleasant sounds that leak into your C7s cabin.

It’s perfect for taking that annoying edge off tire / road noise & some aftermarket exhausts.
NO need to rip out your carpet & interior! The precision pre cut BLOCKIT Sound Deadening System lays right over your carpet!
Fits C7 & Z06. One large piece fits perfect in your cargo area. One piece goes behind each seat.

For the Coupe, rather then large sections removed, we have small precise cut outs for the cargo hoops.
These maximizes the amount of sound deadening material for noise reduction.

The durable UV protected top layer looks great and allows you to still use your cargo area. Feel free to place an aftermarket cargo mat on top!

CHECK OUT some comments about the Blocit Quick & Quiet System

The mat looks very polished in the rear cargo area so I don't think that I will add an aftermarket cargo mat on top of it.

While commuting to work this morning on the freeway I really did notice a difference. I did not have to crank the radio way up and the voices and music were much clearer.

If you are looking for a real easy sound insulation solution I would recommend this product.

First drive to work this morning and I can tell you it makes a big difference. Those that say it doesn't must have some really frickn' loud exhausts.
It took the resonance away that the road puts through the rear hatch area (hatch floor, plastic) and the road noise from the tires is probably cut in half.
There's also a noticeable "quietness" inside the rear now that I never had before. I always had that "white noise" behind my head from all the noises coming from the rear hatch area. Now it sounds like the entire car is quieter.
It made such a difference I am no longer worried about putting dynamat or peel and seal in my car. I will however still do the peel and seal on the floor boards under the car because now that the rear is so much quiter I hear road noise from under the car... lol.

Overall, it's a great buy and I'm glad I bought mine!!

Not the kind that requires you to remove the carpet or anything. Just put two pads behind the seats and one pad in you truck, or cargo area for a coupe. I drove my car at 70+ MPH for a good ways last night and WOW!!! Much smoother and peacefull sound. The stereo sounded better and the car just seems so much quieter in the cab area. I have had a C6 coupe and now have a C6 vert, and I promise you, this thing works! Just wanted to shout out a nice mod.

My C6 is very loud, as it is cammed, etc., with headers & NPP. It has an annoying low rpm drone. With muffler flaps open it is unbearable for cruising below 1,950 rpms. Even with flaps closed, the drone was very annoying below 1,950. Most of my cruising is between 1,700 and 1,950 rpms in 6th gear with 4.10 gears. With the blockit installed, the drone is gone at these rpms with flaps closed. Not just reduced, but gone. Below 1,700 drone is reduced to a bearable level.

With muffler flaps open the drone is reduced with the kit, but still louder than my comfort level. But it's a moot point now.

I'm very happy with the product!

I was exhausted after driving it for 3-4 hours. The '15 Z06 was significantly quieter and rides more smoothly....think Chevy vehicle engineers softened the suspension bushings. Seems to be well known that the '15 is a quieter car. Just can't believe how such a relatively inexpensive and easily installed kit can be so effective. I could now drive the car across country....yes, it's that good.

So bottom line: I'd recommend(your hearing my vary) .
I can't say it's equal to the kits that require full interior dis-assembly since I didn't do that, but I definitely feel there is value in the product. If you are in Southern Calif and want to try in your car, come by and we'll throw it in and you can hear for yourself. Or just take my car for a test drive.

Started the car in my garage and could hardly hear the exhaust with the windows up. Backed it outside ( a lot of snow here now ) and tried the same thing, windows down ,windows up. I will not get to take the Z06 out until spring, but I can tell you that there is a substantial difference in the noise factor just sitting in the car and listening to it run.

Great product. Can't wait to do a more extensive test in the spring, but initially this seems to be a great product !!

Many thanks,

Super easy install - drop in and forget it. I have a coupe.
Big rear mat had the slits for rings.
Put my Stingray logo rear carpet on top of the mat and also put the mats behind the seats.
I can tell a difference in noise ; can hear the radio better and believe a long cruise will be far more pleasant.

That's good enough for me. I thought there was a difference too, but I didn't want to rule out wishful thinking on my part so I had her listen before and after.

I did notice the action of the Bose audio pilot (auto volume compensation) is much more noticeable now and I turned it off.

Would it be possible to see a video of a sound (meter) level in a C7 at freeway speed before and after install? The reason I ask is I insolated my C6 using a different brand/material and saw no measured reduction in the sound level afterwards, even though the vendor touted up to an 18db reduction.

As they say, "Fool me once".
Thanks,

Thanks,

Understood. When the Blockit was originally tested back in 2009, a Bruel & Kjaer ( #1 in sound and vibration equipment) Model 2250 Type 1 Sound Level Meter was used and it was ran by a trained sound engineer. We received approx. 8 db drop. This is pretty outstanding especially for a 60 second install.

The Blockit "quick & quiet" was a huge hit when it was released for the C6!
Below is a list of some threads from many satisfied customers/forum members.
Within theses threads you will find a ton of others posting their positive results with the Blockit too.

Since the C7 has the same issues as the C6, we received plenty of emails, calls...etc, requesting the Blockit for their 7th Gen.
Here are some recent posts I grabbed:

I'm very happy with the product!

Seems to be well known that the '15 is a quieter car. Just can't believe how such a relatively inexpensive and easily installed kit can be so effective. I could now drive the car across country....yes, it's that good.

As for any filming, we did a quick video on our DeadMats which shows you how awesome it is with just a 5 inch piece. Imagine what it will do for your car!


Here's another done by another distributor. (Click then scroll down to play the video)

Can you please post a side by side comparison of how the trunk/other spaces look WITH and WITHOUT this product on?

I noticed in the first post that this is added by "simply dropping in the pre cut BLOCKIT sound deadening mats right over your existing carpet," meaning it goes OVER and not under.

Correct you place it over the carpet. The top layer is a black vinyl with a textured finish which looks nice installed. Its in the yellow car in the first picture.

You can also place an after market carpet on top of it if you prefer.

Please post your thoughts on this product after install. Sounds almost too good to be true since you aren't actually attaching it to the panels. Thanks.

If your looking for some feed back. This is from post #11

When the Blockit was originally tested back in 2009, a Bruel & Kjaer ( #1 in sound and vibration equipment) Model 2250 Type 1 Sound Level Meter was used and it was ran by a trained sound engineer. We received approx. 8 db drop. This is pretty outstanding especially for a 60 second install.

The Blockit "quick & quiet" was a huge hit when it was released for the C6!
Below is a list of some threads from many satisfied customers/forum members.
Within theses threads you will find a ton of others posting their positive results with the Blockit too.
