Bonnet Insulation

Hi

Had my 1.0MPI 2001 lupo for a month or so now and just getting on top of the important things first including changing the pedal box :angry2: , new brakes :yes: , cam belt etc, I have noticed there is no sound insualtion on the bonnet, is this normal or has it been removed?

Anybody got any ideas where I can get it from, I can buy the material but would be easier to get a proper one.

Will get some pics up soon.

thanks

Paul

My 51-reg Lupo has sound insulation on the bonnet, but it's an SDi, so perhaps it was only fitted to the diesel models? Could be worth looking in a scrapyard for an SDi though to see if you can relieve it of what you want.

My girlfriends car is a 1.0 and loud. How much is the insulation going to help?

We went to our local scrappy and had it for £5, so might get it tomoz.

I'm sure it'll help, but has anyone else fitted it and noticed a difference?

Well we bought it for a fiver. It seems to off muffled the sound to be honest, so only a bit quieter.

But looking at it, it now looks more expensive than just the metal and hopefully it'll give it a bit more weatherproofness in the winter months.

We got it from a 1.4 petrol
