DynaMat is one brand. You can probably find it at your local 
auto stereo installer. But the stuff is expensive.  For a cheaper
alternative, you might try the roofing material that protects 
against ice dams at the eaves of a roof.  It is a thick, gooey, 
adhesive backed product available in long rolls. It can be 
applied to the inside of the door (and trunk panels) to 
absorb vibrations. You should be able to find it at a building
supply center or home improvement center.
