My wife complained of her left foot getting hot in our new Minnie. Turns out the exhaust manifold runs very close to the floorboard. I took another forum members advice and contacted Kool Mat folks. Nice lady there named Pat who helped me out. I bought a 5"x12" section of their heat shield . Came with stainless ty wraps and grommet holes in the shield. I formed it around the manifold and used the ty wraps. Voila ! The heat generated was cut by 90%.
Next I'm considering removing the driver and pax seats and floor carpet. I will use a layer of Kool Mat to cover the entire area. Pat says this will really reduce the heat from the engine and trans, plus further dampen the sound. We'll see....
