Sit on a cushion. the added benefit from this is your head is further away from the tyres. Why not just buy quieter tyres. You do know, Robin will be along soon to tell you the GTI is a aurel treat, and that any less road noise felt and heard through the car diminishes from the amazing experience of driving the Scuderia Golf.

No, the mk5's a bloody noisy car! I spend most of my time on the motorway and I would love it to be queiter. The first stage is dynamatting the doors and boot floor, then start lifting the carpets and deadening the floor too!
Cheers... boot is pretty simple... I can see all the bare metal when looking at the spare wheel.But where would I stick the dynamat in the doors? Would this be removing the interior door cards and sticking it on the back of that?And where can I buy this dynamat stuff from? Presumably, there are different types and grades of this?
I recall somebody here stripped out their entire car and had it soundproofed with dynamat. Can't recall whether it was illyun (since he wanted it done) or someone like plush-automotive who is heavily into soundproofing/music.
