What is your goal?

SQ?

SPL?

Reduce road noise? Exhaust noise?

Improve the overall listening environment?

Budget (less important, but never the less helpful)?

If you want 100% coverage on all panels, you will need somewhere around 160+ sq. ft. of material. Personally I'm not a fan of 100% coverage unless you going for SPL and are using the product to form somewhat of a barrier.

Simply put, you can achieve better results by using a combination of products and techniques vs. throwing gobs of sound deadener at it.

Personally for SQ I would suggest going with a Shop Pack (with B-Stock that would be 90 sq. ft.) and use it strategically throughout the vehicle. You should be able to achieve 35% coverage, upwards of 50% coverage, per panel with that amount. And I would focus on making sure the doors and roof are treated closer to the 50% coverage.

Once that is done, cover the floor 100% with Luxury Liner Pro. Based on previous installs and recommendations, 72 sq. ft. of Luxury Liner Pro should be about right.

If you are worried that the thickness of Luxury Liner Pro may prevent you getting everything re-installed, you can use a combination of OverKill and Luxury Liner to create a thinner barrier. Install the OverKill on the floor first, then follow that up with the Luxury Liner. If you go this route, you would want 72 sq. ft. of both OverKill and Luxury Liner to get the floor treated.

That combination of products will give you amazing results in both SQ and SPL. You can also take it one step further and install some Luxury Liner or Luxury Liner Pro on the doors as well... it can be difficult, but again the results are just plain amazing.

i just did my 01 tahoe and used almost 1 shop pack. this included all doors 100% coverage on the outside of the doors and 100 to 200% on the inside of the door, the rear panel area not so much but did most of it. and the back hatch i did like 2 to 3 layers of FULL coverage somtimes 4 on the inside probably waaayy too much but what the hell i dont want to have to do it again. for the roof i ended up doing some layers of 1/8" board and expanding foam so no deadener there. but yea still got like 10 sheets left out of a shop pack of damp pro. hope this helps.
