    There's a guy on the Yahoo group that sells pre-cut kits. I'll try to find his info later.
    Where about the Chicago area are you?

    or you can go to an auto store and pick up a roll and cut some yourself - i think it is different material though - i picked up a roll for about 20 at pep boys - i think it may have been 48 by 72 - there are some ideas that will work for doghouse and whole van here - https://vintage-vans.forumotion.com/t18524-heat-sound-deadner-insulation-ideas?highlight=insulation - oo3

    send him an email for current pricing but I think mine was about $115 or so shipped, it comes with phat mat strips, insulation, pre-cut plastic tabs (that go over the bendable metal tabs spot welded to your dog house) metal tape, instructions and spray glue.

    You can get the individual pieces elsewhere if you want, insulation can be had at home depot by the roll, foil tape and glue as well, you just have to find the stuff.

    You want something for high heat. The best thing I have found is Thermo-Tec
    http://www.thermotec.com/products/14120-thermo-guard-fr.html Makes a huge difference!!
