I purchased the shoddy pad for my 70 300 in prep for removing the instrument panel and the entire AC-Heat box. But it didn't go well.
1. The pad is the first thing that's applied to the firewall at the factory before ANYTHING else is there. Wiring harnesses, dash structure, vent cables, defrost ducts...on and on...all of which are in your way now. This means is that unless your firewall it totally exposed, you can't really install the pad. I tried cutting it into various pieces vs. the one-piece that it comes as, but honestly that didn't work so good either. Yeah I got a few pieces here and there, but it doesn't do the proper job of heat and noise insulation. Believe me, I tried.
2. Working under the dash with that pad is absolutely miserable. The jute and whatever goes everywhere, especially your eyes. Wear goggles.
3. I have the highest regard for DMT products. It's amazing what they provide for C-Bods. But unless you have the firewall area totally stripped and exposed (such as the excellent photos from MrMoparCHP), it's nearly impossible to install. But if you were to do that, the pad's quality is fantastic.
