Sound Deadening & Bracing Roof Part 1 | AnthonyJ350

[@milwaukeekid2637]

Thanks for the video! Currently sound deadening the roof in my 05 Trailblazer. Running two Skar EVL 12s in a custom box tuned to 23hz.. you could say my roof and doors bounce out at the least!

[@samuelfeguer]

I would have loved to see a video of you dropping the headliner and how you removed the dome lights etc.

[@AnthonyJ350]

You just pull the sun visors off and unclip a few things. I'm going to wrap it in suede, add magnets to it and install an overhead console. This process will go over several videos so stay tuned!

That expanded pvc is great I want to use workout floor mats.

[@zelowatch30]

Ceiling is one of the most ignored areas where plenty of noise comes from. They put zero deadening material.

[@AnthonyJ350]

I agree!

[@jewllake]

Yup! Always wanted to do this on my 06 ECSB Sierra; never got around to it. Driving through canyons in the mountains at speed and on a windy day I could here my roof top flex and buckle.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Ya it's made a little difference even driving over bumps. The cab just seems more solid, and I havent done the spray foam yet!

[@russsmith9042]

I've been doing personal car audio for 35 years never run any wiring in the headliner. What would that be for like LED lights for like stars or something?

[@AnthonyJ350]

LED lighting like you said, bluetooth mic, switches etc

[@Fine_i_set_the_handle]

How did you get the headliner out lol that's all I need to know

[@AnthonyJ350]

Watch 10:15 of this video and you can watch me put it back in, just do it in reverse kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqunqqmof9-oqNE

[@ATLBABY24]

I am looking to sound deaden the headliner on my 2000 tahoe limited but im not sure how much sq footage of deadener I need could you give me some numbers? I was thinking 80sq inches how does that sound

[@AnthonyJ350]

Did you measure the area of your roof?

[@ATLBABY24]

@@AnthonyJ350 I'm not home at the moment I'm outta state on business for 2 months lol..

[@mastersmind602]

How much did it cost in materials

[@AnthonyJ350]

Few hundred at the time.

[@ScrizzDubb]

What's "the material" that is wedged between the skin and roof support @ 3:20? And @ 4:00 did you add thin wood or metal to the roof?

[@AnthonyJ350]

Used plastic

[@akuma4u]

@@AnthonyJ350 where did u find the plastic

[@drewwolod4977]

@@akuma4u PLASTIC DUH...

[@akuma4u]

I reallly need to brace my roof but dont know how..it creates so much flex and vibration it ruins the sound of the bass. It makes the bass sound distorted but its due to the roof making so much dirty noise.. when i push with both hands up on the roof it helps tremendously. Whats a permanent fix? I had a guy add dome deadener but that didnt do much at all

[@AnthonyJ350]

What kind of vehicle is it? You might have to bring the vehicle to a metal fabricator and brace it possible. Did you watch my spray foam video?

[@akuma4u]

@@AnthonyJ350 i have hyundai genesis coupe with sunroof. Soooo much flex and dirty vibrational sounds from the roof. Im so disappointed in the way it has ruined the sound quality of the bass. I have not watched the spray foam video yet. I just found this vid last night.

[@AnthonyJ350]

@@akuma4u Is that temporary? Are you going to sound deaden the roof to compare.

[@akuma4u]

@@AnthonyJ350 unfortunately, it is temporary because i need to sometimes use my backseats for groceries or take my niece and nephews out to movies etc.. my roof was deadened lightly with some small pieces of dynamat several years ago but that did absolutely nothing. This however has eliminated 85 to 90% of flex and vibration. Im so happy with the result. All i hear now is clean and clear and deeper harder hitting bass. And its much easier to tune my amp now because i can pick up distortion easier. I just wish i could do a permanent fix. I still need to watch your other vid btw. Ive used spray foam for my trunk. Greatstuff spray foam omg that stuff is no joke. I got some on my hands and fingernails. It was stuck on for a week.

[@akuma4u]

@@AnthonyJ350 hey can u link me the spray foam vid pls i cant seem to find it on your channel

[@BoOmBaMan]

What's up AJ. Sorry for not being on in a while. Been going thru life changes. Hope you're doing extremely well. 😎

[@AnthonyJ350]

Thanks, I'm doing well. Keeping busy at the shop if you've watched my Instagram. Hope life changes are going well for you.

[@BoOmBaMan]

@@AnthonyJ350 I have sorted through a lot of things. But this change threw me off a bit with basically everything. I appreciate it. Oh my bad I don't use social media besides YT

[@AnthonyJ350]

@@BoOmBaMan That's good you're sorting through things. You can always use my email if you want to discuss things.

[@car_venom2265]

Why when it raining the roof leaks inside my 350z?

[@AnthonyJ350]

Bad seal most likely. Are your windows rolling up all the way?

[@BoOmBaMan]

Weather stripping could be pinched.. or torn somewhere

[@car_venom2265]

AnthonyJ350 yes but the water leaks from the middle plastic top of roof I think that from the 💡 light !

[@AnthonyJ350]

@@car_venom2265 Was the windshield ever replaced? You'll have to partially drop the headliner and do a leak test.

[@theakh4238]

I know this is old, but don't use spray foam! Two part foam is superior in every way imaginable.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Thanks for letting us know!
