The results are as good as you'd expect, very good. The difference in cabin noise is noticeable especially next any noisy vehicle, fwy. tunnel, etc. I have a decent stereo system and it sounds a bit better, too.
I asked the shop put Thinsulate in the pillars as well.
This shop did all the work and provided the headliner material - which turned out to look absolutely spot on - same day, 6 hours service, $400 out the door.
UPDATE: Now that the weather is getting up to and over 100 degrees, I wanted to feel how effective the Thinsulate was at insulating the cabin from the heat. And effective it is.
Previously with just the insulation in the doors and rear only I had to keep the AC on high to stay cool. (And btw, before I put the insulation in the doors and rear the summer heat here in the LA Valley was unbearable.) Today I had to turn down the AC to stay comfortable. I could feel a significant drop in the overall cabin temperature vs the same time last year.
Nice result - and at a great price.
The entire back half of the headliner collapsed the other day. I put some of those stupid pins in to keep it from getting worse.
I'm afraid I'll pay more than $400 in NY, but it has to get fixed. Hopefully under $1k.
Car only has 26,000 miles - and is otherwise in ship shape.
did mine a few months back. compared to mercedes the jag was a breeze. Used the 3m headliner spray can, was about $25 and one can did the whole headliner. if tackling yourself, definitely start at the A pillar by the windshield and undo the wiring there first. you can leave the trim on the b pillar where the seat belts mount to the chassis to help hold it. only other trick is removing the 2 bolts that hold the trim on the c pillar behind the upper seat cushion.
