Gladly JB.
I bought self adhesive pads from the usual site roughly 8mm thick, hmm maybe 10mm now i think about it, thicker the better but judge for yourself what will fit where.
There is no soundproofing whatsoever over the rear wheelarches or over the boot floor or under the back seat, so i have thoroughly fitted out those areas, including going right round the spare wheel well and under the wheel.
I also proofed the front doors its a 4 door, if it was a 2 door i expect the rear side panels would be easily accessible once the plastic panel over the wheelarches is off, that would make a marked difference.
Thicker soundproofing is available but there's not a lot of room for extra padding on an Aygo and traditional felt type would need gluing which could be a messy job.
I found under the footwells and the front end/bulkhead to be already adequately proofed and nothing else was needed and time was running out to be picky.
Be warned the plastic clips are brittle and don't like the cold so best left till a warm day before removing the panels (easy job though) and i'd be inclined to use a hairdryer to warm the clips then if i did the job again.
Hope that helps, please ask if you want to know more, i'm sure i could have gone far deeper with even better results but time was of the essence on the day in question.
The improvements to the audio/CD were startling given the cost involved, replaced head unit and all 4 speakers (also slipped in a neat under seat Pioneer active sub which most wouldn't bother with), no point in doing one without the other, its like a different car now
