Hi All,
/The installation, of course, is straight foward enough but my
/question to y'all is this: In your experience, what have you found
/to be the best heat shield for the inside of the cover, how did you
/attach it? Also, I was wondering if anyone had an opinion as to
/wether or not it would get hot enough to melt if I went ahead and put
/it in until I Found a suitable solution?
The sandwiched bubble wrap insulation with foil on both sides works
great. I can't remember the brand name, but it's available at home
improvement joints. I got it at Orchard Supply in the Bay Area. It's
thin (~1/4"), doesn't hold water, has a good R rating and is easy to
handle (roll, bend or fold and cuts with scissors). I would advise you
to put it on the interior side of the cover, since you only need to tack
it in place with contact cement and the carpeting/dash stuff will keep
it there. I did my GT6 tunnel several months ago and it cut down
footwell heat dramatically. I'm also planning to cover the interior
firewall too one of these days.
