Use Bitumen plate's too make the door havier and quieter.
It even makes the speakers sound better and gives it more volume.

(sorry for the bad englisch but i'm dutch.

in other words get Dynamat type stuff.

Brown Bread is another brand or do the cheapo and just as effective option...

Aluminium Flashing tape and cover the inside of your doors in them - helps to keep the sound in and stop rattles as said above

Yep, Dynamat around the speaker mounting hole and also on the inside of the outer door skin directly behind the magnet of the speaker. That helped for me.

What MY?

The <01s benefitted from foam. 01+ seem to be a little better

Also, I've removed the plastic sheeting and dynamatted all the doors, but that plastic sheeting really rattles...
