They're non skid material, not the felt ones, and about 1/8" thick or so. You can't go too thick or else it might bend your hood corners. I then stuck the dots on the spots on the body where the hood bumpers touch them. It makes the fit more snug, no more rubbing on bumpy surface driving, and NO MORE SQUEAKS! Cost me $3.

Thanks again for the superb advice! I love this board! The dealer used some cheap foam stickers that the rubber stoppers wore thru very fast...so the squeak came back real quick. I saw the felt ones at Home Depot, but finally found the anti-skid ones like yours at Lowe's, put them in last night, and drove really slowly up and down the same bumpy stretch on my street over and over, with my ears peeled...well, long story short, none of my neighbors called the cops on me, and that damn squeak is gone! GONE!! Before this, I was happy to be getting rid of my X to get a pickup for my home projects. Now I'm actually sad that I have to say goodbye to it. [Crybaby]
