looking for ideas on sealing the trunk off


Recommended Posts

im looking for some ideas on how i can seal my trunk off, WITHOUT using spray foam

i did it once, and completely regret it, makes a terrible mess and my trunk carpet is completely shot lol, so i am trying to avoid spray foam by any means

i need to seal it from the top, and both sides

I've always used spray foam. If you wrap aluminum foil around EVERYTHING that the foam might touch, it won't get stuck in the carpet, etc. Kinda like making a fiberglass mold of something. Just make sure you don't leave any gaps between the foil and the car. Not sure if I have any pics to show what I mean, but that seems to be the easiest way to me. I'll look for pics...

spray foams a pain in the ass... why not just get a bunch of cotton and wad it up and start filling gaps? Maybe buy a bunch of pillowcases and start cramming it in there lol.

edit: that's actually not a bad idea lol. If I still had my setup in my Honda i would do that instead of foaming everything.

what i did on my wall was this...not sure if it would work for you

put a piece of on the sides of the box, .75 inches back or how ever thick you would would be fro the trim panels

i put them even because there will be a trim panel that will make it sit even

hope that helps, you can always fiber glass it in

as mentioned lay some aluminum foil down or tape it before you do it so that it can easily be removed in the future
