Has anyone replaced the hatch/boot cover with something more substancial, i.e. a real parcel shelf.

 

On the basis that a lot of the noise in the car comes from this area, I thought something more solid would make a bif difference.

 

Any ideas?

mdf is what you need:)

Would be tricky considering it has to go up and down with the boot lid, you couldn't get much of a seal. I would have though you'd be better off damping the actual body/floor panels that are bringing the noise into the boot.

or fill your boot with a couple of duvets

Nah, DON'T do that! I filled mine with duvets on the way to JAE and ended up reversing into my pals brand new Navara! :hurl:

Duvets combined with parking sensors then :p
