Il materiale adesivo per insonorizzare dove lo posso comprare?

I got them from amazon Spain "Placas insonorizantes". They add weight to the hard top but it helps with wind noise

Amazing, thank you! I heard sloshing water in the last couple of days and a damp smell started. Checked the footwells and driver (and rear passenger footwell) were soaked. Has been raining loads here. Yours is the first video I saw - I went out to check and the chamber was completely blocked on both sides. A considerable amount of water came out. I can’t vac it up just yet as it’s night and pouring down (UK). Also hoping that this is the fix and not some other cause but time will tell. Thank you again!

This exact thing happened to my car, the area under the cowl , at the base of the windscreen apparently has a tendency to get clogged with debris and leaves in these cars, hence the rain water draining off the windscreen has nowhere to go except into the cabin of the car via the car via the air con ducts which are in the footwells. I didnt bother with a vacuum cleaner, I simply replaced the entire carpet plus the underlay and im glad i did because when I removed the underlay the amount of water I found was the equivalent of about a litre or two. As much as you vacuum the carpet you'll never get all the water out from the underlay, which Im convinced would lead to a permanent damp smell. Hope it worked out for you.

It's crazy that it floods the whole car. We're in the south of Spain so luckily with the high temperatures and the vacuuming it did dry out in the end.
