Default Sound Insulation for SSPs

I've got the interior out of 0327 and I have been driving it to put some miles on before I take it in for a tune-up and smog check. Road noise, vibration, rattling, etc. got me thinking about the possibility of adding insulating product such as Dynamat, Fat Mat, or any of a dozen other brands and types to 0327 before I put the interior back. I would put it on the floor, across the metal struts behind the back seat, and on the inside of the doors. Probably not on the ceiling because a lot of users report finding that the adhesive fails from heat on the roof and the insulation separates.

Has anyone had any experience doing this, either with SSPs or any other vehicle? I have spent a few hours online looking at various videos, websites and as is so typical, there are conflicting opinions on what material is the best, how to apply it, etc. One user says Dynamat is the greatest thing since sliced bread, someone else says it's a waste of money and you can get similar results using much less expensive materials. What did/would you do?
