Westfalia is the special name given to the transformed Volkswagen camper van. The Westfalia is not particularly fast, reliable or fun to drive but it is still one of the most popular vehicles on earth. Why? Because the Westfalia was built to carry your home inside your vehicle. It is surprisingly spacious with all of life’s necessities.
While most Westfalia owners love their camper van, we hear a lot of complaints about the noise inside the vehicle on the highway and at higher speeds.
As talked about in the following blog Vanagon Soundproofing, B-Quiet offers affordable automotive sound control and sound deadening products for those thinking about soundproofing their Volkswagen Westfalia Camper Van.
Why Add Sound Deadening to a VW Westfalia?
- Quieter Driving Experience: Reduce road, wind, and engine noise on highways.
- Better Sleep Comfort: A soundproofed van makes camping more restful.
- Improved Audio Quality: Music and conversations are clearer without background noise.
- Thermal Benefits: Some sound deadening materials also help regulate cabin temperature.
Key Areas to Treat in a Westfalia Camper Van
A lot of the noise inside a Westfalia comes from a lack of sound deadening material in the door panels. That is why the team at B.Quiet recommends applying Ultimate Automotive Sound Deadener to dash and on the door panels of your Westfalia for maximum car sound deadening and insultation.
For maximum sound deadening and insultation, B-Quiet recommends covering all interior areas of your Westfalia, including the floor and ceiling. Ultimate is easy to apply with a peel and stick material that to all metal surfaces. The process is simple and takes about 2-3 hours.
For additional automotive sound insulation, you can apply B-Quiet HLiner in the engine bay of your Westfalia to reduce engine noise.
How much do you need?
- B-Quiet sells Ultimate in 50 square feet rolls, and you will need about 3 rolls to cover the entire inside of your Westfalia.
- A sheet of B-Quiet HLiner is all you’ll need to cover the engine bay of your Westfalia.
