I'm not sure of any that does, you could try audio shops but car toys will not carry it neither will circuit city. You could save money ordering online unless u absolutely need it now.

The only thing you're going to find at a local shop is Dynamat. That's not a good deal though. I have Dynamat in my Tahoe doors because I got it dirty cheap, but would go with something else for future projects. The Dynamat is an asphalt based product and there are better things out there. I like my Dynamat, but like I said I got it cause it was dirty cheap.

There are others like Quang mentioned... Raammat, Secondskin, eDead, Hushmat, etc.

Your best bet is to research a little bit on car audio forums where people do nothing but talk car audio. They'll have info you really need.

Is dynamat asphalt base? I really don't think it is. Edead used to be but even then they've changed. I'll have to double check on the dynamat but I belive they're butyl base and not dynamat. I'll look into it though. For the price it BETTER not be asphalt..

Just watched Seven Pounds. Watch this movie if you want to become depressed. What a sad movie geezus. I should of watched fast and furious instead of something. Pretty good movie though IMO, just ridiculously depressing/sad.

Well it always was asphalt based, but I dunno if they have changed it. The others are butyl based and that's a better compound. The asphalt based products allow moisture to build up and can promote rust in the long run (not something to worry about unless you're keeping the car in a humid climate forEVER).

There are good, better, and best levels of sound deadener out there. The "good" level would be fine for the majority of people though.

To the average ear anything is going to do the job. I find myself always wanting more... nothing's ever perfect. Regardless though, the Dynamat made a world of difference in my Tahoe.

If you want to be even more cheap you could use this roofing material people have used for deadening called Peel & Seal, you can find it at your local home depot and lowes, and it would actually work. But in extreme heat weather that Texas get its hard to make it stay (such as roof, top of your hatch) but on side panels and doors it seemed to stay. I would definitely not recommend it, not even sure why I'm even suggesting it, unless you're really that much of a cheap ***. I've used it before it's OK but I wouldn't use it again. I've hear people preach about it.

Just looked it up and

Dynamat Original is Rubberized Asphalt & Dynamat Extreme is Butyl. That stinks.

Yeah, Q & me were like filling 2 rooms full of boxes and the living room with furniture. He has alot of stuff to do in there. I'm just glad I brought some dollies and the Hand-truck that coverts to a 4-wheeler. Saved my back from a lot of hurting.

I think his place was very nice and His family is very cool also. I love the Garage floor. I just hope that tool chest fridge is stocked with some beers for the next time I'm out there.
