Another thing is anyone on here have a tutorial on sound deadener/fatmat install for best places where to put this I seen a video of sum 1 putting on the back of the license plate.

I've written way too many tutorials on sound deadening vehicles (they are on all sorts of forums).

A good tip is don't apply it to areas that are welded or reinforced. Those areas don't see much, if any, improvement from being treated.

There really isn't any need to apply it to the license plate... just a little bit of closed cell foam to cushion the license plate will prevent it from rattling around.

And I would suggest treating only 25% of each panel, but this method really only works with a true CLD mat... so you're probably going to need at least 50% coverage, maybe more to see good results with the FatMat.

Fatmat is garbage. I'm sorry you had to buy it. Watch these vids.

realize this a COMMON thing with that garbage.

It looks like he didn't install correctly and layered rattletrap over the fatmat.

I never seen that happen to any of my homies... did he clean it b4 puting the mat up & push it down with more then just his hands

well its obvious you dont really care about end result in the first place so why bother at all. if its a "budget build" then deadener isnt even really needed.
