Dissasemble the door - need to sound dampen the door

[scootie]

Getting tired of that the car is some what noisey and since I'm gonna do a speaker upgrade I wanna go full retard and sound dampen the door. I've gotten the door card/panel off but how do I remove the rest so I can access to the area where the window is? 

 

Has anyone done this before?

Access inside the door once you've removed the door card is limited to a couple of small inspection hatches. The hatch where the electric window motor attaches can be removed (The motor and window cable are attached to the hatch though, so without removing the motor and cable reel you won't get much access anyway. Since you're going at the speakers, you'll be drilling the speaker rivets out anyway, so you can go in there. Sealing well around the speakers and any other covers you remove as well as making sure there's foam wrapping on all the wires (There are 7 separate electrical connections between door card and the door on my driver's door) should keep everything quiet. If you're adding sound proofing inside the door remember not to block the drain holes in the bottom of the door - otherwise it'll collect water , which will leak into the car once it gets high enough.
