    What's the best sound deadening for a Kombi floor? The roof, sides and wheel arches are all done, and was always planning to do the floor as well. I think the 20s generate a lot of road noise so figured this could be a nice little job for the B/H weekend. Are folks sticking with a 2mm Dynamat...
