I would strongly recommend a pair of sharp scissors, the ones being offered from the seller (perhaps) when u buy your Dodo Matt

If you look at transition post viewtopic.php?p=473239#p473239

he simply purchased a craft store option roller to roll the Dodo Matt down
You can get a fancy one if u want but this option is probably cheaper n does same job

Also, a knife with a very sharp blade, you'll need to keep changing these as the aluminum layer of the sound deadening matt will blunt the blade surprisingly quickly

Lots n lots of cardboard to make templates so u can cut to fit with cardboard first n transfer that design to the SD material to avoid F ups n wastage

A set square or straight edge (ruler) ideally both, tape measure, marker pens and cleaner to clean the surface prior to application

You'll also need, and cannot get from the shop, patience, elbow grease and pleasant language !!!

Here's a shot or two of mine also
