Description of the installation of the Stinger Roadkill Pro sound damping material in our ML.

Once the first interior door panel was removed it became apparent that doing a proper installation of the material would involve removal of the moisture barrier, which is when I chicken out. It was uncertain whether the tar like adhesive the held the plastic moisture barrier sheet in place was reusable. So I just applied damping material to the exposed metal on the interior side of the door and to the backside of the removable interior panel. This may have been a waste of time and material (I worked at it long enough that objectivity has been lost).
