How do the shims work?
I've posted this before.

If you want to just try it out, use double sided gift tape or electrical tape like this. It's kind of ugly.

The rubber sheet was extra mass loaded vinyl soundproofing sheet from an audio project. It comes in a huge roll, and it's not necessary to use the same stuff.
