Second Skin Audio

Taming the Rattles in the IS-F


Recommended Posts

A lot of people asked me if i was going to put Dynamat in the Lex. The answer is NO. I use Second Skin. It made a HUGE difference with just a few strips. The roof was flapping so bad it canceled out some notes and was downright aweful. I was able to get my arm about 12" into the headliner and sliced my arms doing it. It was worth it though. IMMEDIATE difference. I am planning on doing the entire thing eventually but this worked so good, i am not even in a hurry :D

Great vid as always Steve. Couple questions though. Do your seats fold down or do you have to remove your rear seat every time you work on it? I was wondering because I have been thinking of sealing my sub from the trunk, but with the trim level of my car my seats don't fold down (however I have been thinking about buying a rear seat for my car that do). Would it be beneficial for me to point my sub toward the cabin and seal it off or could it harm the sub? Thanks in advance.

seats don't fold down. I do have the ski-hole though.......I'm not a fan of Ski-hole bass but i don't have much of a choice :D The seat blocks a good amount of bass but its ok. If i want bone crushing bass, i still have my Hoe. Its not bad though!

Definitely made a difference.

I've been wondering about luxury liner, does it feel squishy under the carpet when you step on it? On the SS site it looks really foamy (especially pro) but looks more ridged in this video.

And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle ;)

Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

Nice video Steve!

DjCrush, the LLP is actually quite rigid due to the nearly 1/4" thick mass loaded vinyl that is fused to the closed cell foam layer. That and the foam is quit stiff so it really doesn't feel squishy under carpet.
