Underbonnet 'blanket'
Discussion
Has anybody removed the sound insulation pad on their S? It looks as if mine has sagged and is ready to foul the throttle linkage - along with everything else on the top of the engine. I'm tempted to get rid of it , but is it there as sound deadening or to stop heat to the bonnet or both?
Thanks! (and one day I'll be able to make a contribution, but more questions than answers at the moment)

Mine has none either. I'm thinking of getting tha quilted alloy foil type as I'm sure it would be easy to stick on than the blanket type.
My bonnet had cracks all over the place, and I always wondered if it was due to not having any insulation under the bonnet!
What do you think.

I've got the padding, but I reckon it could well have been a third-party addition, as it looks in pretty good nick and is about 1/2 inch thick.
Hanging down a bit at the edges but as yet not enough to foul anything.
Makes me think though, if that stops heat soak to the bonnet, presumably it increases the heat into the passenger area.....
