[Shotimes] removing firewall carpet

[Robert Bruce]

In addition to noise reduction it also acts as a heat insulator.  If it's in decent shape you should keep it.

Has anyone done this? pro's/con's?

 

Is it any louder inside the car with it gone?

 

What purpose does it serve anyway? It is strictly for

noise dampening?

 

I noticed that mine was torn towards the bottom. It

doesn't seem to be saturated in oil but I am worried

that it might start holding water. If it had oil in it

I would remove it immediately; I can imagine how

quickly it would burn if it saw flames..
