<P>I insatlled BQuiet X-treme a few months ago. Made a good bit of difference in the noise. Especially with the Tiico. Can't say much about the heat though. Never noticed it. My pup's live on the back bench seat quit happily.</P>

<DIV></DIV>>Has anyone on the list had experience with this company and it's products B-Quiet sound deadening.http://www.b-quiet.com/index.html
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>I'm interreted in both sound deadening and a very hot floor between the front seats which make summer heat worse and makes the floor too hot for my dog to lie on. Does anyone have any tricks for insulating the rad pipes My pipes haveactually been replaed with radiator hose, so this should be easier. I'm wondering about materials, tricks and any unknowns/unintede rresults from doing this. Experiences/advice would be appreciated. I'm thinking about insulating the whole floor in the front, maybe the living area as well, and probably the floor and engine lid area. Here too my concern is not only noise but heat that is transferred to the bed in summer. This heat tranfer might be welcome in the winter, but the van isn't used in the winter. Alsoo would like to know how this material would tolerate annual oi spraying? Would materail stick to sprayed surfacec? Could in trap moisture and cause rusting problems.
