I am pretty sure that stuff will stick to anything. I assume the foam in the seat acted as a sound deadening. I would put a layer in on it. Pull the spare tire and put some on the well in the truck.
The best sound deadening I have ever done on my car is add a turbo! It killed the flow masters drown!

I was ASSUMING that the wood was a replacement for the rear seat back which creates a separator between the trunk and the cabin area. Typically the noise is coming through the floor and quarters. When I did the wagon, I did the inside of all the external sheetmetal - doors, quarters, floors, firewall ....
I know your are not redoing the entire car but the way I understand the sound deadening stuff - it keeps the sheetmetal from vibrating/transmitting noise. I doubt (and am often wrong) that the wood is actually causing the noise itself.

Let me know how that KILMAT works out for ya. I’m in the process of stripping down the whole interior of the TA. I’ll be needing some sound deadener to go under the new carpet and haven’t even begun to investigate options yet.

I used lizard skin in my 54 ford wagon. The sound deadening is fair but that is tough to call because the wagon is so similar to a drum. If you slap the roof you do get a thud.

I've tried them all and even the 'cheap' Home Depot roll on stuff.... spray on ceramic coating is both easiest and most likely to reduce noise and heat to the inside. It's what's inside the Corvette and my FJ40. The FJ40 has bedliner over the top instead of carpet. The stuff works and works very well. So story to illustrate. When I did the '40, I didn't seal the center console to the floor - and always kind of wondered why the coating wasn't working - to the point that I'd have the windows down in the snow. Then I sealed the console.... now it's cold inside and I'm considering adding back the 2nd heater...

Buy car insulation direct from USA's supplier for the lightest heat and sound deadening insulation. You will not find a lighter automotive sound deadener!
Sorry I missed it, the stuff is so expensive. The real expensive stuff is closed cell, which will not hold moisture like the old stuff that just stayed wet and ate floors.
Maybe next time.

I like FatMat but not sure how available it is anymore. If you use is sparingly (i.e. covering 1/3-2/3 of mainly just flat panels) you can get a decent way to keeping the sound down to OEM levels. If you're going full quiet than cover every square inch!
