Hiya. Love the conversion, it's given me a lot to think about with my deli.
Quick question: how much dynamat did you end up using? And did you do the engine cover / driving compartment as well?
I'm looking to reduce road noise in the Battle Bus a bit and this looks like the way to go forward.

Re: Turtle L300 kitchen / camping / sleeping cabinets
I used a lot and covered the engine hump and rear floor.
If I were to do it again, I would start at the front with dynamat/fatmat and just do the rear with ecofoam as dynamat is quite expensive

Cool beans. Just looked up Ecofoam and there's a manufacturer here in New Zealand! Sweet. Looks like it might help my insulation issues as well if i do the side panels. Did you have a look at bitufoam as well? Would it be worth going down that road or is ecofoam a safer bet because of less chemicals.

Every closed-cell foam will do the trick. Some of them just have a higher density (better R-value, more expensive). Just make sure you don't get any insulation which traps water (like open-cell foam etc)
