I am not sure, but I can share that the insulation suppliers for Dearborn and San Jose was different. We get asked for 'good used' San Jose insulation on a regular basis. Primarily for the Shelby crowd. We never have anything worth piecing together.

For the most part, it did. I had to trim some areas. I also used cardboard to trace out the driver's side of the pad. If I remember correctly the washer foot pedal didn't have the holes cut out. You will need a good pair of scissors to cut the Jute. Make sure you buy extra rubber plugs. I did bust one trying to get it in. The only plug that gave me fits was the one in the middle of the heater box. It pulled out when installing the box back into place. I did spray a little adhesive around the open area of the firewall to keep the pad in place and the plug didn't pop out during install. Not sure if you have a pad installed currently in your car but the Vintage Mustang link below shows both driver and passenger side installed.

Sound deadener on firewall ??
When i put the sound deadener on the fire wall should i cut out the outline of any brackets so the brackets like gas pedal bracket and steering column flange and the bracket for the peddle support etc... sit on the metal or would it be fine to put these brackets right on over the fat mat mega...
