The HIace VAN LIFE: Part 6: Insulate engine bay

[@elimathers2187]

Love the videos will defiantly take some tips of you i just recently bough at 04 hiace for my first car

[@aaslam08]

Mate, love your work. I just picked up an '03 Hiace and will definitely be taking a few tips from this series of yours. Great job!

Carpet underlay is for noise reduction, this aluminium style shield is good for heat reduction.

do you have video of the final build? cheers

[@guilhermemonteiromachado5466]

Hi Mate, How much you think it improved the cabin noise when driving on motorway? Is the engine 2.8 diesel? Tks

[@DJIrrealis]

awesome video, thanks for sharing! What sort of carpet did you use?

[@garywinkworth3380]

hey man, watching your video has helped me to remove my front seats on my 2002 hiace, Thanks so much . Oh was just wondering why would you put carpet under the seats?. Thanks mate

[@RAFFIZUMZ]

More insulation and sound deadening

[@paxmagellanic498]

Ha! No one ever insulates the cab! Glad you did!

[@AT8Films]

So am I. My Hiace has no aircon and I live in a hot climate. It has helped a lot.

[@juliannelennard4554]

Loved all the videos but super curious why you’re bothering with insulating the front seating area? Cheers mate!

[@rickyhorsburgh6581]

The engine is below the seats so alot of heat gets radiated up

[@wytewings]

Hi, just wondering if you are planning build out your van or if you just camp in it as is.

[@MarkWilliams-wp8kc]

Great vids buddy. I have the same model hiace I bought for camping and bbqing at the river . Will be using your vids as a how to as I do mine thanks heaps for posting . Have you done any other mods since , would be great to see if you have

[@juanmateco]

Hi man! Great job! You really made me want to do it myself. How much carpet did you need? I'm about to order mine

[@elimathers2187]

do u have heat come through the handbrake can you feel heat while driving??

[@AT8Films]

Only slightly. It was worse on my old Townace. Really the whole bottom of the cab would radiate heat and the insulation has helped stop that.
