Buzzing/vibrating speaker fix

I figured out a way to stop my right and left door speakers from buzzing/vibrating. I pulled out a foam roll-out used for camping and cut the corner off and then cut that little piece into 4 cubes about 1cm x 1cm in size.

If you look at the speaker knee pads right by the bottle holder in the door you can see that there is a little cap in there and you can even pull it back a little bit.

Well I just jammed two of these little foam cubes inbetween this area on each side.

I found that got rid of the vibration/buzzing completely (I don't blare my music, but I do like it loud at times)

Here are a few pics to visualize what I am talking about:

I see a problem with this -- what happens when the enclosure gets loose? stick another piece of foam there? It looks like it'll just stretch out.

Has anyone taken the door panels off and come up with a different solution for this? The rattle is extremely annoying. Even using a high pass filter and lowering the bass a bit. This is my only complain on this car. I don't think that's the only spot that vibrates either.

I think you can easily remove the door panel and put some stuff where it vibrates/rattles. I've seen people doing this mod, but haven't seen exact picture where they put the stuff.
