Scroll down and you will find a section with "Between the Seats" forums and the last forum there is "Interiors"....
It has several threads regarding insulation...

what ever you use fiberglass, foam, bubble wrap the walls need to breath to counter the condensation in the walls or ceiling don't ruhn your wall covering tight to the floor. or it will rust.

i thought that was what paint was for (rust).
Yes those 'barriers' (continuous sheets) contribute, but some 'breath'.
There are compounds U can put on (like manufacturers) thik[n putty like, lizard skin, ceramic paint. I like a combo (yup w a y more wrk) of these AND the blockers (a metal 'blocker' again as in oem -alu or other sheet/panel on stilts) like the heat shield.
I refuse to have 'rugs' on certain vehicle floors so have hada avoid 'under pads' & similar solutions in certain vehicles (see avatar on right). W/the 'rug' there seems lots more solutions inc combos right there (sound'n heat). HTH
