Could it be you installed at the wrong plate ? or over applied ?
pretty sure i did it right. straight go into STP sound insulation for the top and also tires that would be a better option for our ride.-= MyForte - Naza Kia Forte Owners Club =- V20, Leaves You Speechless

QUOTE(g88 @ Dec 3 2013, 09:02 PM) well we are talking about cheap DIY solution. STP, Liquidator all are advanced sound proof solution edi bro the P rubber and D rubbers are not cheap too leh. i bought the one for all 4 doors, boots and hood.. total around rm22x with some extra only.. if straight away go STP in Kelvin's shop it's approx rm500 for 4 doors only... then the floor approx rm11xx if not mistaken. still i think for Forte it's the top when it rains which is noisy and also the 4 tires area which could really reduce ALOT of noise for our ride. |

QUOTE(kidmad @ Nov 28 2013, 11:58 AM) don't waste your time and effort.. Got the P rubber and D rubber installed in my Proton Savvy previously.. Not effect except for a solid 'thub' sound when you close your doors. Straight aim for proper sound proofing instead. Rm 3xx for 4 doors sp also can give u the 'thub" sound |

hi to all sifus,
want to ask an opinion. I plan to get a second hand car. my choice is either honda city E or kia Forte 6 speed with shifter. But forte is my first choice since i liked it so much not just because of the interior and exterior itself. But also because of its performance. I choose to buy a second hand car because its within my budget to get my favourite car and also as my 1st car. And one other reason is to used it as a long term car. Your advise im kindly appreciate. Thank you |

QUOTE(g88 @ Dec 3 2013, 11:59 PM) still i cannot believe how come u ended spend Rm2xx for the rubber seal. If 2-3 cars maybe i would accept it no idea leh.. u already applied the P and D rubber seals? perhaps you share your cost.. I did it 2 years back liao can't actually remember how many metres I bought. but I know it's good enough for the whole car. |

Door close solid but the nothing on noise improvement. I took it all off because it is not worth to slam my doors. |

Cheapest way to improve closing and slightly improve noise distortion would be using this rubber seal. If you apply correctly, no problem closing door + u can have solid door close soundOf course professional sound proof is better but alot of work + cost is not effective |
