There is a few different products out there from the different suppliers, I would recommend that you get a pre cut style, it is alot easier to install, and just search for the best price.

I have a blk 69 vert and it was 90 degrees outside and top down. My wife and I were cooking inside. I bought new carpets too and I bought the insulation kit from Madcorvette.(Dave) 100.00 Just waiting for the time to install it. Should cut the heat down if not eliminate the cabin heat.

I installed koolmat inside my 72 and could not be happier. It is expensive but I am happy with it. I purchased 2 bulk rolls and cut it to fit my needs. I used masking paper and cut out patterns so I could get the fit I wanted. I even put it on the inside of the door skins to hep out with heat and noise. It is not an easy job but it is worth it.

I used a foil back padded Matt. I purchased it from the local Pep boys about 25 dollars per roll......it took 2. I used a headliner glue that was heat resistance. I put the foil down......made a huge difference in noise and heat from floor board is gone.
I'm happy with mine for the money but I do like the looks of the kool matt and how it was seamed will caulk....nice tight fit.
