Great vid bud! Really cool to see the difference with the amazon basics vibration dampener alone, without even the sound dampener foam stuff.

Just to confirm, you did the rear doors as well? When you re-installed the vapour barrier did you add more of the black glue? Thanks for this vid, going to attemp on my 2011 Matrix, as the road noise has always been brutal. I've already replaced the stock speakers which looked and felt like dixie plates.

Your assessment of using the Toyota part is 100% spot on. Customizing those plastic parts usually isn’t a good thing for long term. Thanks for the video. And with the actual Toyota part, you are better off inserting the clip into the lever first then putting the rod in and locking it in.

Pretty nice that you got all that noise reduction with just one package. I went a bit crazy and did an entire vehicle with this and other types of thicker CLD, then closed cell foam and mass loaded vinyl. Then got a hold of some Fibermat 45 to fill spaces and stop panel rattling. If you don't compress it much, it also absorbs sound to 200 hz. I spent 2k all in all, added 150 lbs to the weight of the vehicle, but it's basically a spaceship now😂. Only took a few weeks of work but was totally worth it. I'm in that car far too often, and it's now a dream.

Man i am serching for this exact video for hours.Thank you so much!Have a nice day🙏

Hi Courtney Anderson, I’m Srividya from Paramat, a premium sound deadening brand and a proud partner of EMMA. We’d love to send you our sound deadening sheets to try out and hear your feedback. If you’re up for it, a short video review would be amazing! We’ll also be at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this November-would be great to connect! Let me know if you’re interested in collaborating. Cheers, Srividya

😂Oh wow , thank you so much. 😂😂 I have been looking all over for this information how/ where electrical connect inside was. Not in maintence manual. Maybe that"s why it looks like never been changed . And never passed a smog test without cheating somehow. And why I got such a good deal used @180,000 miles.... because previous owner couldn't figure out why the engine light was always on. Information is rare for a rare engine the 2003 matrix XRS 2 ZZ engine. I hope this is the fix for better mileage and performance. I hope I hope. Thank you.🎉❤ Any suggestions for new tires?

Good guide to installation, but what's your impression on the sub? Is it strong? do you still have it/like it? Cheers mate 👍

amazing demonstration for the audio with and without Honestly for anyone NOT an audiphile or with too much money, sound deadening the doors with vibro (the butyl mats) and some foam liner on the door trim ehances the audio system very well, turn it into something much more expensive sounding, and even if you change them with something better, you don't need to spend too much to get great sound while not going crazy in price

thank you Cody. i just worked on my 2004 toyota camry. cost $7.71 the doorman worked. the white one was snugg but work good enough. thank you so much

Thanks for sharing. I have a 2016 Grand Caravan. I want to put Fosgate 6x9 in the doors and I’m the back. I’m pretty sure that the space in the doors are shallow. Which 6x9 speakers are you using?

well done Just found a set on eBay for $20 bucks so gonna replace! Thnx

I also found this one : ruclips.net/video/KwTTpv-37g0/видео.htmlsi=e42SJ3tAyB6Us9kQ ( it seems to work more easy for me.. thanks for posting.

Correction: Jack O'Connor died in 1978

In the end I used the 2006 model metal thermostat housing, 2006 thermostat (they were different) and 2006 model gasket. I did not use the 2006 torque specs (21 ft lb) because they were for a much larger thread diameter and I definitely didn't want to strip out the 6mm x 1.0 threads in the aluminum on the engine side. I was unable to find the torque spec for 2009 model so cut the 2006 value in half to 10 ft lb which seemed to work.

That is sooo much easier than the 2008 and newer door lock actuator replacement procedure! It's a 6 hour job to do those as the entire interior of the door has to come out and then it's a fight to get it back in!

Thanks. Probably the same thing happening to my cavalier.

How much weight do you think the sound deadening added?

damn gota stop watching your videos, it's expanding my scope of work. would just taping the surface of each door help or need to go behind it like you have it on 5:20

was it a noticeable difference upgrading the rears or not so much?

Thank you Courtney for sharing your knowledge! I've been wanting to change my factory speakers out and with your video I have the courage to give it a try. I'm wondering if the front door speakers might be as easy .. but will check out your channel. Best Regards, Tom Pollock

Is this possible if it won’t open from outside and the inside is child locked as well?

How do you like them now? Decent bass?

How are you liking them now? Any decent bass from them? I know that's not really what they're for. Also, why did you decide on 6.5 instead of 6x9?

Should have cleaned your battery terminals while you were doing this!

Thank you so much for this video. It made changing my actuator very easy. Your instructions were perfect with visual camera angles that covered the awkward points! Thanks again!

www.nhtsa.gov/report-a-safety-problem#index If people would report this issue to NHTSA, then it would be noticed and maybe FCA would be forced to fix this safety issue for free. I have had people trapped in the back by this failure (that occurred with no "buzzing" sound as is supposedly the symptom.

What was the part called?

If you are unsure if your car is an XRS which is the only model this video applies to, here are some characteristics unique to this model: It has an XRS badge on the left side of the hatch (Not XR) It has a 6 speed manual transmission (* in 2003 only a few XRS models had automatic transmissions) It requires premium gasoline Tachometer redline is slightly above 8000 rpm. If your car does not have these characteristics then this video is probably not the right one for you.

You got it all wrong, dude. Don't be drinking when you're doing a video.😅

Song went from sounding like a shitty paper speaker to sounding like a real guitar in the car.. Im about to begin this project on my car & truck; with silles or kilmat 🇷🇺..

I did a Honda pilot about a year ago. My hatch was mostly empty and free of moving parts. I installed deadened inside the hatch and inside the panel, but in the center I used an egg crate foam to fill the cavity. I used egg crate and good stuff spray foam in areas too hard to reach. This especially helped in and around the wheel wells. I used a thicker deadener in the floors, and I had the vehicle undercoated. It’s my wife’s car and I hated the road noise it had. A trip to Disney listening to it made me want to sound proof it. It’s amazingly quiet now. I swapped out all the speakers for higher quality and added a powered sub just to round it out. I think all told I spent $250 on sound deadening and about $400 on new speakers. It was worth all the work! Thanks for the video

Glad I ran across this video. The advice for the wiring harness will make things much simpler!

the best way and the easiest way to make it flush like new ?? put pool bleach. pour down the water fill line, use a funnel, don't get any in the tank, do it a couple. of times wheelchair Larry Merry Christmas

Nice video

drivin' a stable, or what?

The 2nd step to this is using foam mat as well. I did almost my entire 01' Celica GT-S in both Killmat and the foam liner (not the doors yet, thus why I'm here.) Really making the difference. Also does that Matrix have the same 2ZZ engine my Celica does?

Gonna attempt this this week.. just ordered the Amazon sound deadening.. Gonna do doors and rear spare tire area.. 2db.. is a big difference.. thanks for video

Thank you so much. This video was a great help. We have an 03 Camry and haven't been able to open the front passenger door for over a year.

Hey just want to say your sound clip demonstration of the L & R doors as a comparison is the BEST practical demo i've seen on youtube so far! I did this recently on my Yaris and the sound of the speaker system was night and day, so much so I've decided to just hold off on an aftermarket sound system as the Shitty stock system actually sounded decent/good with the sound deadening work done!

You're welcome!

Great video, i've heard those Infinity reference are decent with factory lower watt stereos, and still not needing an Amp. You mentioned ending up with the REF-6532IX, why IX vs EX?

This video, plus your infinity replacement is exactly what i needed. Thanks!

Fix it with a shark bite fitting

I did the doors on my 2006 matrix with Amazon basics sound deadining and was very pleased. I also did front and rear floorboards but the greatest noise reduction was achieved by deadening the rear hatch door, internal and panel area of sides of hatch area and spare tire area along with under rear seats. So basically most of all metal below windows was deadened which greatly reduced the boomy sounds that emanate from the back of a Toyota Matrix at highway speeds.

Thank you!!! Great explanation!!!

poly butylene came out in 1975.

You answered my prayers! Who need stupid power locks? CHEERS !

Thanks for the quick video. Really appreciate it. Just ordered one for my Alvarez 5022. I hope it fits as snug as the one in this video!!!
