Like you, I also have no clue how much material is required. I am contemplating doing this, however I am a bit skeptical in my abilities to lift out the seats without causing a single scratch. I am very OCD by nature....I will NOT create a scratch on this thing, as irrational as that may sound to some lol.

FWIW, the GTmat is better at vibration dampening than noise. I installed their Onyx product in my hatch. Get some closed cell foam to go on top of the GTmat if you really want to reduce noise. Tires also make a big difference if you value quietness over performance. |
Hahhaaaa! Lucky I am indeed!
I am loving every moment I have with it when I am in town. Otherwise, it hangs out in my garage on a battery tender.

The OP said he used the 80 mil Ultra, which I believe is a step down from the Onyx, whereas the Quadro is a big step up from the Onyx. I'm pretty sure generic CCF is cheap, so that's the route I plan to go eventually.

JARblue, I would have to agree with you. After taking it out for a few miles, it has become clear to me that this is less of a "sound deadening" material and more of a vibration dampener. Don't get me wrong, it still did the job, but not to the extent I imagined it would. Also, I made a mistake in my original post. Initially, I ordered GTmat 110 mil. However, the package I had received had multiple "80 mil Ultra" stickers on it. After some research and conversing with a GTmat rep, Kevin, I came to the conclusion that they did indeed send me 110 mil. I'm sure I will add some CCF in the near future. Thanks for the advice!
