You’re right mate. There’s an amazing knowledge base on here. People will always help too.

Was it difficult doing the air vents? I've ordered the knobs to replace standard ones. Was thinking of changing the vent rims but maybe to red to match interior display lights

I haven’t actually done them mate. I just bought alloy rings, and pushed them in. About £20 on eBay

If the wife asks, it’s not £4400, it’s £44.00

EBay is very dangerous Gaz

It has made a difference Sean, the road noise is reduced for sure. It’s seems like the noise from the rear is more noticeable now. It already has some silent coat back there, but it’ll get the full hit this weekend

Sounds like a mod I will be doing sometime then

I’d recommend it mate. If you’re coming to Hef fest, and you haven’t got round to soundproofing yours by that time. I’ll take you for a run in mine and you can have a listen

I’ve been soundproofing the rear of the van today. I got most of it done before I ran out of super liner. I have noticed a subtle difference in the van, but if I’m dead honest, it’s not as quiet as I’d hoped it would be.
Anyway, some photos of what I e done today.
