My back would not have given me the option to do this project twice. Leaning over the hatch for hours gets really old.

you need to be a tiny little asian like myself so you can sit in the hatch comfortably

it's pretty easy to install and easy to cut with a good pair of sheers or a sharp razor.

aside from what most people said i also suggest getting a roller to help press the product to the panel/surfaces. i improvised and got a bedframe wheel.
i'd also keep a pair of sheers/fresh razor handy so you can make cuts/adjustments as you are installing.
wear thin gloves if possible i found myself getting a bunch of mini cuts from the sharp edges of the hushmat
i have done my doors and rear hatch and i have noticed the biggest improvement in the form of no 'ding-ing' when going over gravel or dirt and less 'raining' sound when driving on wet surfaces. the actual road noise is mildly quieter but i wouldn't say it's super quiet like a lexus. that said i was able to hear my exhaust and engine (stock at the time) a lot more clearly.
