You have to remove the inner panel to gain access to the window ND lock stuff and that's all I stuck it to so just unbolt it and remove it. It's all torx screws and you have access to all them. Shouldn't have to remove any of it. I did go over a few of the screws that hold the inner window stuff but a knife an 5 mind will clean the heads off for access.

This pic shows the black inner panel. That's all that's covered so it is still easily removable for window service.

Did a little work on the floor today. 3 layers thick. Wirez sound deadner, underlay and carpet. Got a close loop commercial carpet. Some of the cabinets back in. Have a few hours tomorrow am to tackle a little more.

Looks great though, hows the sound with the floor in? Have you driven it yet?99kw900 Thanks this. -
3/4 in the rear wall. 1" in the side walls most spots, some were only 3/4 " deep tho, I used the 1" in the roof panel. I cut a cess holes in the plastic that's bonded to the outer skin and shoved lots of Ruxul in it. Haven't driven it since yesterday so not sure how much the floor has changed it. Hopefully finish it completely next couple of days. Have a NE inverter/charger to install and wire. Lots left to do.

I'm really diggin' this thread. Something I've always wondered: do you know what your bobtail tare weight was before you started? Curious how much weight you gained by doing this. I used to mess with car audio, and I know for a fact that sound deadener is some heavy stuff.
I'd love to do this to my KW, but I have to stay as light as possible. Earplugs don't weigh much. Lol.DDlighttruck and RedForeman Thank this. -
Disclaimer, that wasn't thermal insulation they were testing, just for vibration dampening, which is primarily what car audio guys want/need. I'll eventually get around to doing it on the GF's Ranger, because it's got excessive road noise.ShooterK2 Thanks this. -
