Re: Material on Rear Package Shelf

["Robert Rooney" <DMCVegas@xxxx>]

I know the material that you are talking about. It does the very same 
thing on my car (27,000 miles). My only guess as to what it's for is 
to keep the carpet on top from sliding off since it's rubberized. 
Since the black stuff on my car is cracking too, and the padding 
below could be better I've been thinking about replacing both. I was 
thinking about using regular carpet padding with maybe some rubber 
spray for making beliners in trucks to simulate the black stuff. 
Although I don't know if that would work the same as the current 
padding to help isolate the noise from the engine...
