I was snooping through the parts diagrams this morning looking for differences in the 2014. They have added reflective sheets to the interior panels. They shouldn't have taken this long to add them but it is good to know they do listen to the customer. I have already installed dynamat in mine but they are precut so it would be an easy job. I can't really tell but it looks like the foam panels are installed over the reflective sheets. Should help a little with heat......they even have one for the cup holder!

I insulated my cup holder on the bottom side with heat shield.

I did mine the same way- huge difference!

Yep it made a world of difference. I was very surprised how long my drink stayed cold.

Ordered my mats waiting for delivery. Did you do all the panels around engine?

Where did you get the refelctive heat material? I want to get some and do mine as well....

 

[goble034]

Auto parts store is were i got mine. A little pricy but well worth it.

 

[heavysledz]

Duh…I guess I should have thought of that….I might try Summit or Jeggs to see if they have it too..

 

[Canamxteam]

jegs has it for $50 shipped for a 36x60 roll

 

[heavysledz]

Is that a good price? What did you pay for it at the auto parts store?

I did the entire engine compartment of my commander and it made a world of difference, plus it kept the noise down as well. I used Dynamat which I purchased from Summit. They sell it in rolls. It's not cheap but it works outstanding.

 

[goble034]

I don't recall the exact price but I think it was between $50 and 60. Two or three packages. (the rolls are not big)

I see over 100 differnt kinds on the Jegs website. Do I need toget the thicker insulated kind with double sided reflective foil or will the heat reflective tape be all that is needed. Can you point me in the right direction for the one you are referring to for $50 for a 36 X 60 roll?

I thought it was Dynamat that I used but it was actually this exact one.

Awesome..thanks.

I was looking at these. Do any of them appear to be better than what you have? I don't mind spending a bit more if it really does what it says it will do:

JEGS Performance Products 32031 JEGS Heat Shield Tape

Thermo Tec 14125 Thermo-Tec Thermo Guard FR Heat and Sound Insulation

Thermo Tec 13590 Thermo-Tec Adhesive Backed Heat Barrier

Thermo Tec 54125 Thermo-Tec DuraKool Insulating Mat

Thermo Tec 13585 Thermo-Tec Adhesive Backed Heat Barrier

Mine is similar to the insulated mat. I had some scraps from our skidplate heat shield material. But the $50 sound saboutright for the size of sheet.

Here is what I just ordered...

Get some DEI silicone sealer for the exhaust wrap. You should be able to get it or orde rat your local auto parts store.

 

[heavysledz]

Wrap withstands constant operating temperature of 1200°
Special coating reduces smoke after installation and handles up to 2000° intermittently
Width: 1" or 2"
Length: 15', 25', or 50'
Several color options
