All I've done with my Disco1 is cut the caroet & sound-proofing material away to expose the bare metal - then put the rubber mats back in.
That way you don't get the matting holding water and rotting thru' the floor
(makes it feel a bit like my old 90 I guess) :D

After loads of attempts to cure leaks including removing the redundant mud flap brackets under the front passenger seat, I found the culprit to be the main cable loom grommet was badly fitted from new - it,s behind the washer bottle and in the V created where the wheel arch meets the front bulkhead.
muddyjames:
could you not get some spray on water sealent or get some heavy duty pvc like they use on water beds and glue the pvc to the floor and then put all the carpets etc back in?
This is what I did when my rear floor rusted through and everytime I went through a ford the boot ended up drenched. I only put down a sheet of plastic then and it worked perfectly fine.
This way the sound proofing is waterproofed and the disco looks like a disco inside with little noise.

Im hopefully getting some industrial sound insulation matting from www.wrightoffroad.com. Unfortunately he doesnt do a disco fitted system (yet) but a bit of time and effort with a stanley should yield good results!
I know the bloke who makes them- hes sound and will be able to advise you te best way to deal with it!
