Looks neat brother do give another update when possible

[pwuser158913575038]

Looks nice. Show the after results please.

[zoraiz6565]

Yes I will still have to do the doors and trunk area

[zoraiz6565]

Sorry for the delay my other car (coure) was hit pretty bad from the left side so I ended up focusing on that.
Anyways

I was surprised to see that the doors were full of mud and today I learned that a Mehran has 3 water drains in the door two of which were blocked on mine.
Cleaned the doors with some detergent water and cleaned all the mud waiting for doors to dry so that I can insulate them.

please also cover the holes on sides with duct tape to damp sounds and vibrations.

Make sure to put back the floor drain rubbers. clean them and stick them back with some samad bond so they will remain fix for longer time and will not come off easily.

[nnabeel]

please use some antirust paint inside the doors and apply some cavity wax.

before installing the door cards, put the plastic vapour barrier.

[zoraiz6565]

Thanks for your suggestions I have stuck the floor rubbers with samad bond and I have waxed the doors where I saw rust.
When I bought my car there were no plastic vapour barriers what should I do for that

[nnabeel]

easiest way is to buy plastic which is used by stationers to make covers of books and copies. there are shop keepers who have rolls of plastic having different micron(thickness).

buy one which is normal, not so thin and not so thick, and seal the doors.

[zoraiz6565]

Thanks again for your help I will buy it and seal the doors then post the final results.

@zoraiz6565
Bhai, what is the result of your experiment?
How much it cost for your total project?

Did it really work and lessen the sound? How much 20% or 50% or more?

[zoraiz6565]

The results are pretty good the heat from the floor has been reduced and noise reduction is definitely an advantage I would say around 30% reduction, I have noticed the other small noises of the interior have been reduced.
The total cost for me was Rs.1250 including material ,glue and cutter.

Can u show door insulation via pics ?

[zoraiz6565]

I will post once I get the plastic vapour barrier I have assembled the doors and forgot to take pics will post in 2-3 days InshaAllah

[nnabeel]

yes bilkul faraq perta hai. compare it while sitting in another car without insulation. u will feel the difference.

just like i had installed the right side vent, although it give not a heavy air blow but when i sit in my friends car of same model, i feel my right side getting hot.

[pwuser158913575038]

Can anyone tell me what this foam is called and where to get this? Also does this work for damping doors or should i use plastic sheet?

[zoraiz6565]

I don't know what it's called but it's basically carpet foam the one you can put under the carpet to make it soft I think jumbolon.
Basically it reduces the noise and heat inside the cabin you can buy it from carpet shops.

[pwuser158913575038]

Thanks. I am going to install in my mehran as i have installed a sound system and doors rattle when high bass is played. Hoping that rattle would be reduced.

[zoraiz6565]

I don't know if it will completely stop the rattle as I don't have a Subwoofer installed but it should make a difference because it certainly reduced the rattles in my car.
Also your car's door lock and rods might be loose which cause a rattle ,make sure they are tight and place some foam between the door and the rods that should also help.
