Question Dampening the doors...

I'm going to be installing some HushMat and Dynamat this weekend, and was just wanting to know...

Is there any possible chance of me getting some dampening material INSIDE the doors on the outer skin without removing the window and access panel?

I'll have the Hushmat to put directly behind the speaker, but I feel that I need to have some material on the outer skin further back by the window (middle of the door).

Can I reach in from the speaker opening back to that area?

Many thanks in advance!

It'll be too tight to do it properly.

I put a few pieces inside of mine when I did it. Not fully covered by any means, but there's a little anyway.

Yeah, that might be what I end up doing. Just cutting some thin strips and sticking them in there as far as I can, and roll them on. Something is better than nothing I suppose.

I'll have those 8 x 8 piece of 0.5" thick Hushmat Wave Breaker pads behind the drivers. It's fairly dense stuff, so that should help some as well I would imagine.

Other than that, it would be pulling the window out, then removing the access panel with the regulator attached. I really don't think I want to do that. Though from the pics I've seen, it all comes out in one piece. But still...
