    Is there a consensus of which insulation for cab ceilings is best bang for the buck?

    I've put on 2 coats of the Lizard Skin soundproofing on the entire inside of the cab, plus underneath. Never thought to try how thick it could go? I did top the underside of the cab with their black CI coating against engine heat, then topped it with Bed Armor against abrasion. I may contact...

    Is there a consensus of which insulation for cab ceilings is best bang for the buck?

    I shot (white) Lizard Skin Ceramic insulation on the roof, then top coated it with white automotive paint. On the inside I have 1.5" closed cell foam going under the headliner. The difference of inside temps was distinct between the before and after of the Lizard Skin.

    Who Has Installed Pacifica Seats w/Heater?

    I have, and covered it on one of the FB forums. They have a temp sensor in the seat bottom that I did not use. I separated the seat and back and used a dual 5 position control for each seat. https://www.facebook.com/groups/154125488331132/permalink/1087108721699466/

    Is there a consensus on cab floor sound / heat shield?

    The engine cowling is a bit more complex than "2 seams" there's a lot of curvature going on. It cost me $400 for the automotive carpet, and I provided the pattern and the base material for the carpet to be glued and down onto.

    Is there a consensus on cab floor sound / heat shield?

    I shot the Lizard Skin soundproofing both inside and under the cab, several coats. Then the Lizard Skin Ceramic Insulation underneath on top of the soundproofing per their instructions. Like others said, I found corrosion under the interior floor coating, so that was all stripped off, treated...
