Is it legal to use some kind of a material (like thing sheetmetal?) behind Dynamat so it doesn't rip when you put it over a hole in the doors? I took my door panel off and found out where I lost some of my score. My Dynamat had huge rips in it where the access holes were.

Anyone???

Dynamat makes a product called Dynaplate which is designed to cover the holes in doors and not rip apart. Using anything other than a product that is designed for sound deadening in a door is a modification and illegal. Not sure on thickness, you may have to remove some of your dynamat to install the dynaplate. BTW, it's pretty pricey, but not MagicMate pricey.

I was thinking about just cutting some real thin sheet metal and stick it on the back of the Dynamat so it doesn't rip. Would Fiberglass mesh or something like that be legal?
