Thanks guys for your comments.
I wanted sweeping indicators and couldn’t find anything to fit so I thought I would make my own.

Lots of soundproofing done today. It’s not made it as quiet as I’d hoped to be honest, but it is better. ImageImage
What’s people’s opinions on how much of a difference it’s made? I still have my bulkhead in. Maybe I’m expecting too much? I’ve silent coated the whole lot and used super liner on the roof and sides. Also MLV on the floor.

I'm the same mate. I expected miracles I think, but it has made a difference I suppose. I too still have the bulkhead but mesh one with mdf panels.

A solid timber bulkhead, siliconed in then carpeted made a decent difference in mine, Iv been toying with the idea of going all out with the soundproofing. It just seems to much effort tbh lol

I've thought about doing mine for a while in the back and the. Fully re rack it. Just not got round to doing it.
Does it really not make that much of a difference?

I've got the rubber matt down too then ply onto of that aswell. To be fair It has made a good difference. Was just expecting to hear a pin drop 😆

I was the same as you, expected a massive difference but there wasn't much in it. It's better but it's still noisy ha. Hoping getting the carpeting done will help a little more but.... It's a van at the end of the day so, its going to be a bit noisy. 😂
