Re: [DML] So let's quiet this baby down...

[Boo who? <liljon_2001@xxxxxxxxx>]

There are alternatives.  I wouldn't recommend Ice
Guard.  It is a roofing material and it has a grainy
side.  I have heard of people using it but I wouldn't
recommend it.  The one "legit" alternative is Be-Quiet

http://www.b-quiet.com/index.html

I used it in my Toyota pick-up doors around new 6 1/2
speakers.  Works well but it will add a little weight
to the door.  Don't THINK it will pose any problems
with your D.

Hope that is helpful Pat.
