So this isn't a guide, just something to give ideas to others if they have the same issue. Winter is over, but as my 3rd with my Trailhawk, that was the last one I'm going to go through with frozen feet as I drive with the heater blasting in the morning. But this could also be done if you're driving out to a great overlanding spot and have the same problem.
I tore up the carpet and sure enough, no insulation from where my feet rest up to the firewall.
I bought a roll of blue polystyrene for next to nothing at Lowes and laid down enough vertically to cover all the metal, then for good measure I laid another row horizontally then put the carpet back and snapped 2 large plastic pieces back over top of it all.
Just to make sure this was going to do Something I also added a good layer to the bottom of my floor mat using some gorilla tape + spray adhesive.
It was a super easy job, luckily it was a nice sunny and windy day, perfect for outdoor jobs.
