IMO, it's a safer option to install the sound deadening material in the interior of the motorhome. But FIRST - understand how sound deadening materials actually work - you could at minimum, waste money, time and effort with little gain. Or at most you could actually make things worse!
If you are REALLY serious about sound deadening, talk to a qualified acoustics engineer. Do some research... make some phone calls. A car audio shop may be able to point you towards a solution that works for you.
