As we all know, these trucks are uncomfortable, loud, and generally not a nice place to be on long trips, (the girlfriend thinks so too). So I wanted to try to remedy both of those things at the same time, starting with comfort. I picked up some really cheap seat covers on Amazon, 17$ for the front and rear seats. I had originally just wanted these because my seats were getting super dirty and stained. I just wanted to cover them up.
Then I remembered I had some foam lying around, so I thought I could put the foam under the cover to make it more comfortable. Cut it to size and put the cover on top!
After I did both seats, I had a ton of foam left over. And the seat covers came with these headrest covers that didn't fit my headrests, so I thought nothing of them. Then I thought to use one of those covers and some leftover foam to cover my center console lid to create a padded armrest. Cut the cover and some foam to size, stretched it and stapled it all the way around and cut out areas where in screws into the center console.
Cleans up the interior pretty nicely! Now my center console lid doesn't look like scratched crap.
Now onto the 2nd portion, noise. Didn't get many pictures of this process, but I had heard some people talking about Peel and Seal. It's supposed to act like Dynamat and quiet down the interior of your car. Now Dynamat being beyond my budget, and Peel and Seal being 18$ a roll at Lowe's, deiced to give that a try. With one roll, I was able to both front doors and both front driver and passenger footwells, firewall to front of the seats. (didn't get pics of the doors)
Haven't been on the highway yet, but just driving around town I do notice it is a little quieter. Once I put some more towards the back of the truck it should make a significant difference. Help quiet these mud terrains down
