- Hey everyone! This is the second of three videos that make up our How To Sound Deaden A Car Door video series! Please note, if the video is not in timelapse, I am sharing relevant info that relates directly to the installation.
For this install, we are using our ResoNix Stage-3 Door Sound Deadening Kit, which can be found in the link below. This is the most common method of treatment that we see from our customers and deal with ourselves due to its level of performance without going bonkers.

It features
. ResoNix CLD Super Max Mega Pro CLD Squares to reduce resonance
. ResoNix Fiber Mat 45 (although we used Fiber Mat 25 due to space constraints in this vehicle) for sound absorption and decoupling of the door panel
. ResoNix Guardian for midbass rear-wave sound absorption
. ResoNix Butyl Rope as an all-purpose spot treatment product
. ResoNix CCF Decoupler 3S for tight-tolerance areas that need decoupling
. ResoNix CCF Strips to couple the midbass drivers to the door panel grille opening for getting the best midbass performance.
We also ended up using ResoNix CCF Decoupler 3F, as well as discuss the use of ResoNix Barrier in certain applications.
If you have any questions, feel free to call or email at any time. Thanks!

I feel you bro I did a Mini Cooper and man its a pain in the ass to get that inner door skin apart. great video bro !
FYI, regarding the oil in the bottom of the door cavity, I have a feeling that might be rust proofing solution to deal with moisture that might collect at the bottom. Just got my car done with an undercoating + rustproofing and the oil residue they apply looks really similar to what you see inside the door.
What about the whole outer door panel covered in the wax type substance? That substance is rustproofing at the bottom of the door if it’s a yellow wax like coating. Look up Cosmoline, that’s what it is. Did you ever count the amount of times you said butyl in the video?
New product need alert Nick. “Wax” gloves 😉
I always wanted to sound deading my vehicle especially to help with my sound system and keep my truck from rattling its ass off lol. But watched so many different videos of using torches and flaming the shi outta the butly to install it. Then I heard people mentioning resonix and seen how easier it looked to install along with being some of the top sound deadner I think I've found which deander to go with. Along with the fiber mat 25 /45 on top to icing the cake. Rather spend the money and go with a good quality deadner that works and has test to prove it and I don't have to use a torch lol gonna get my truck sounding like a Bentley on the inside lol
Supermax mega pro is such a Chad name I love it 😂
Man I’m working on a Tahoe right now thank you for all the help
This looks like a good product that can withstand heat. Not all hold up in high temperatures. I'd use it on the roof as well as door panels.
Can't wait for the inner door skin video. Might be putting some pretty beefy 8's in a g37 coupe door soon and am kinda worried about getting a solid mount in a door install.
Is 100% (or close to) coverage of CLD really required? I thought shooting for 30% panel coverage eliminated most resonance.
Nice demonstration Nick.
Gooood damnnn… i wanted to do it but is alott of work, i’m pretty sure is worth it but damn😂😂
That Resonix Guardian looks pretty thick, ever hear about or have any problems yourself with clearance for the window going up and down? Or the position/movement of the regulator, motor, and other parts inside the door? I know it depends on the car but curious if any car/setup has ever had that problem that you know of.
Is it a good idea to use these CDL Squares for sealed subwoofer enclosures? Like for the JL Audio TW3.
Hello Nick,
Nick, can an aluminium tape, similar to what is used in HVAC work, be used on the seams of the CLD pieces or is that something that is negligible?
What scissors are you using? That aluminum dulls a utility knife blade quickly.
The website emphasizes the importance of "100%" coverage for the Guardian product and the example of the window closing to reduce sound was excellent, but there are gaps in this install... how close to 100% do you need to get to make Guardian worth it? I'd be doing '21 Toyota Tacoma, all 4 doors. Thank you, these videos and the website are awesome!
Do I have this right?
Wouldn't it flop around if you took that stiff aluminum sheet off? Also, I don't understand why stiffness equates to quality sound dampening. A sheet of plywood is stiffer, but won't do much as far as sound dampening. I'd rather see a comparison of both products without their backing as well as front facing (aluminum) sheet compared. I'm fairly certain both would flop around, but not sure it matters anyway.
