At last, my plan to DIY soundproofing my Perodua Viva’s roof
has completed. The result is now a more comfortable drive during this rainy
season.
It is a quite challenging task and involves some help. It is not impossible to do it alone but very difficult especially when getting the roof panel off. However the result really pays off. This time I choose to make a single layer
of soundproof just using the Insulflex®. This is because I cannot seem to find
where I put the soundblok (bitumen
strip like) as this was a delayed project for a few years. :(
So here are some pictures when this project was done.

Caution: a delicate touch is needed to remove the rooftop as
it is a fragile part.
I also stick the Insulflex® at the fender liner to help
reduce some tire noise since now I am on low profile tires. Hehehe…

how to remove the roof top?
start by removing everything that in contact with the roof panel. then i just slide my skinny hand at one side and using my finger to cut thru the adhesive that stick the roof panel to the roof.there are 2 long adhesive on left and right.
it is quite a tough job and really require alot of patience.coz bear in mind that the roof panel is really fragile.so be slow and steady.never give up.
