Does anyone know where I can get a self-adhesive heat shield? I need one to put in between the transmission and the cab floor(ing). When I drive, the whole bottom of the floor/seat/shifter gets extremely hot.
I looked underneath the cab, and there is no heat shield material left where the 5spd transmission is. there's only zig-zagged glue lines of where at some point, there must have some been some kind of heat-shield.
I looked at a few auto parts store nearby (Oreilly's, AutoZone, Napa, Car Quest, Pep Boys, Advance Auto Parts, etc) and all they sell is a "DEI Heat Wrap".
it's not adhesive, and looks like its just meant to wrap around a starter or alternator. They sell heat wrap tape, but it's mostly for headers (header wrap) and other stuff.
anyone know where/how i can get heat shielding? It's cold oustide, but the standard cab does get very hot after an 10-15 minute drive (and I have an hour-long commute)
Much appreciated!
