[bazza93]

meant to do that in the test section

[mattyb240]

apparently that bit is expensive to replace so i've heard, could be wrong though!

i removed mine when i had the car resprayed, and for those who know their geography and world climate you will see i live in a country where temp in the shade is well in excess of 45C, and in the sun 55C+ is not uncommon, and without this heat/noise insualtion for two years i have not suffered any ill effects, so if it dont harm me here it is unlikely you will suffer in sunny Leicester

remove it clean the area and go about your life
