Question sound dampening material in rcsb

I'm wanting to add some sort of sound dampening material to my silvy here within the next two weeks. I definitely want to do the doors, but I'm also throwing around the idea of doing the floorboard and the back wall. How hard would this be to accomplish and how much time do you expect it would take? I read through a few other posts and from what I gathered, secondskin is pretty good stuff.

it took me a day to completely remove all the interior out of my RCSB. But that was including the dash board and all.

for what u are doing, it shouldnt take but an hour to remove the seats, carpet, door panels, and plastic pillars.

Wouldn't mind quieting the road noise down some myself. I'd be interested in seeing how well you like secondskins works for you. What seconskins product are you looking at? Damplifier Pro?
