Noise isolation of car doors, as well as the hood provides comfort and optimal acoustics. Due to this, there will be no extraneous noises and creaks in the car, and the music will sound nicer. But successful sound insulation will be, if you pick up good materials and consistently perform all actions.
The point is, that in production in cars rather thin and unreliable system of noise isolation is developed, it gets worse over time. Therefore it will be, useful and relevant in your car Lada Granta to make the door trim with special materials with your own hands. So, acoustic conditions will be improved, and you will get rid of extraneous noise, you will be able to enjoy comfort and silence in the car.
In general, the scheme of the door trim looks quite simple:
- It is necessary to remove the old door trim;
- Next, you need to clean the work surface from dirt and dust, degrade;
- Cut the sheets with a vibration absorber and heat them with a household hair dryer;
- Then you need to glue the sheets together, smoothing them with a roller;
- After that it is necessary to cover all site with noise-insulating material;
- Then you need to seal all the technological windows;
- Paste Vibroplast, and on top of "Bitoplast" in places of collisions of rods and edges of a covering.

Covering of car doors with noise-insulating materials
Now consider the process of sound insulation of doors in the car Lada Granta in more detail. To do it with your own hands, such materials and tools are needed:
- set of acoustic caps for cars;
- 5 sheets on 3 millimeters of "Vibroplast" Gold or Aero;
- 2-3 letter "Bitoplast" 10 millimeters;
- pistons;
- rubber roller;
- alcohol;
- corrugated pipe;
- protective gloves;
- than;
- screwdrivers and wrenches.
Why do you need a matching unit for the towbar
Having prepared the car Lada Granta and the necessary equipment, you can get to work. First you need to remove the upholstery from the car door.
Step 1
step 2
To do this, remove all plugs, putting them on and unscrewing the screws. He snapped the pistons from the bottom edge, you need to collect the cover material. Then, it is necessary to unscrew columns and to remove carpet films. Next, you need to treat the work surface with degreaser, example, alcohol, to remove dirt and dust. Then you need to smooth the old vibration-insulating gasket or glue a new one. Don't forget to wear gloves for that, to avoid possible cuts and burns.
step 3
Next you need to cut the material. Noise insulation is best done with a vibration absorber "Vibroplast" Gold / Аero. It should be cut into pieces approximately 10 on 15 centimeters or stripes. On the foil side, each element should be heated with a hair dryer to a certain state, to prepare for use.
step 4
You need to remove the paper from the molten piece, push it through the technological windows and stick the skins on the metal, leveling with a roller. Such maneuvers must be performed for each door of the Lada Grant car.
step 5
At the next stage with their own hands laid technological holes vibration-insulating material. But before that, the wires must be secured, putting on a corrugated pipe.
First you need to lubricate all the mechanisms and door locks. You can plug the holes with the above vibration absorber or use special plugs. Cutting the desired shape pieces of material, they need to be warmed up with a hair dryer. Then the plugs are glued in place of the technological holes. They should be handled carefully and attentively, so as not to miss any gaps.
step 6
Next you need to take a sheet of "Bitoplast" and cut into four strips, each of which is glued to the door around the perimeter of the upholstery. This material will provide an anti-inflammatory effect. After that all internal surface of a door is necessary for gluing "Vibroplast", and apply Bitoplast on top again. When materials are attached and smoothed, you can put the upholstery in place.

Noise isolation of flaps and hood
Excellent sound insulation is not just about finishing the door with your own hands with a vibration absorber. It is necessary to paste over materials of a fender of a car. The tools and resources needed are the same, as in the previous case. The car must be mounted on a jack and remove the wheel. Then you should carefully remove the wing from the arch and clean it. The surface must be washed and degreased. Then "Vibroplast" cut into pieces and apply to the part, to know, where and what to glue. Then these pieces are heated with a hair dryer and attached to the wing. It is necessary to process not less 70% area of the wing area for greater efficiency. You need to level the "Vibroplast" with a roller and install the flap in place.
To silence the space in the hood, maneuvers are performed similar to the above. Degrease the surface, already heated soundproofing material is applied and glued, leveling it with a roller. On the inside of the hood is glued sheet "Bitoplast" and fixed with pistons. This ensures the sound insulation of the engine, the sounds of which are now less heard in the salon, thanks to the hood trim.
so, now your Lada Granta car has become more perfect. You insulated the door area with your hands, hood and fender of the car. There are no extraneous sounds and rattling rods in the cabin, grind of plastic and unpleasant creaks. And now the door opens easily, silently, as in an expensive foreign car. Even the music began to sound nicer and clearer. Thanks to the work done independently, your car has gotten an order of magnitude better and found a new life.
