    Several of you have said because of the seat location and the rear mounted engine, thnoise gets pretty loud. That being said, is it really worth it to add sound deadening material under the carpets on the floors and tunnel?

    I think it is worth it in most cars,,  custom fiberglass built cars that i have been in, all seem to need it ,not just VW built …   Dan

    Allen I used extra thick glue down pad (for commercial use carpet) in my TD and trucks . Cost about ten bucks at the carpet store for a remnat piece .
