ok from all the work im doing with my car im getting short on cash. im not bothered so much by the rest of my car but my right door seems to get more vibration at the higher volumes than i would like. so question: what is better, get a small 1'x1' dynamat to cover the front speakers or use "edead" for the entire door? also how much would i need to cover both doors with one layer. thanks in advance.

asking cuz edead sells for ~$28 for 10cu.ft. so is that enough to cover two doors. from wut i read, edead seems to be decent. and i can get alot more for my budget. so its more of cover entire door w/ decent dampening vs small portion w/ exellent dampening. opinions are welcome

another question. i was watching the install video for edead(linked below), and they cut off the excess, were there is a hole. i got the impression from the dynamat install videos that you cover as much of the door as possible(including the holes and gaps). is comparing edead to dynamat like comparing apples and oranges.

just got an idea...der
 dynamat the speakers with 1'x1' and edead the rest. will be a bit more expensive but you get the best of both worlds.

$30 for both doors? entire door, not just the speaker locations? if so can you point me in the right direction. i keep checking ebay but still a bit pricey. a link would be nice
