I was thinking about putting some 8-inch subs in my doors but i just read that it will rattle the doors real bad...what can i do to prevent this? I have never opened up the guts of my door can u put plenty of sound deading in there? Will that stop the rattles? Also does the subs in the door have to be shallow mount to fit? What is a good 8 inch sub? pionneer has no 8's on their site but primeir does but they are alittle pricey for me i dont need anything crazy just wantin to add some bass but it dont have to be crazy

soven makes some very good points as to why subs in the doors are very difficult.
If you put subs in the doors, you will need to totally seal them off, at minimum so the front is sealed from the back (this includes any other holes in the inside metal of the door). There are many other reasons why it is a tough idea to just consider getting the sub in a door correctly in the first place, but let's also examine some other issues if you did manage to get the subs in there. You need mids and tweets up there, be they seperate components or stuck together in a coaxial speaker. Tweets (if seperate) are pretty easy to move around, but you'd need to have some sort of location for the mids, be it in custom kickpanels or in a further modification of the door itself (keep in mind here that the mid would need its own airspace, seperate from the sub). A better option, given your concerns, would be to put the subs in your deck or trunk (coupe, right?), and either move those 6x9's, or more ideally get a nice coaxial or component set, into the doors.
