The front underbody insulation from Eckler's. This seem very poor quality. I do not see it lasting long at all. Bare fiberglass on the top side? The whole thing is very flimsy and was over $100.00. The part has a sticker on it that says "Northern Star" mfg co. I am assuming this is what you get form all the vendors but, it is had to tell from their web sights.
Has anybody used something else that is better? Have no problem making something out of better material. Just not sure what that would be.
Cool. Since it isn't a restoration I can tell you this stuff worked nicely for the trans tunnel and the floor/firewall under the heat shields. I had plenty so I doubled it in places. Made a noticeable difference keeping the heat out of the cabin. I used the Nashua hi-temp foil HVAC tape you can get at Home Depot and as long as the surface it clean that stuff sticks and tolerates heat. Later happened to look at some of the fiberglass ceiling tiles might've used some of that too had I seen it in time - just peel off the plastic covering and there is a handy looking piece of insulation. Just an idea, might be a bad one but so is overpaying at supply houses. .
