80 mm (millimeter) would be a bit over 3 inches, not 80 ml.

..... I have found that duct tape works best to stifle interior noise ... just a small piece over her mouth usually does the trick ..... .....

Ill be using the hush mat, did some local research and the dynamat would cost around $100.00 more.

If you're doing the door panels 80 sqft is what you need.. I installed fatmat from fleabay. Light and cheaper in price.

I think i did the 50 mil for less.
