I agree with rottitank. At that speed your gonna hear wind noise no matter what. Fox and any mustnag for that matter, im guessing, hasnt spent anytime in a wind tunnel.

well Ecstacy, you say some guy pryed the door open to get the keys, i'd say your hinge alignment could be off by a pubic hair or two

Your in a fox at 130... there is going to be wind noise...

Replace your window seals, your doors could probably be adjusted and shifted up a little to close that gap a little.

Also learned this from my DSM friends...
Take the interior door trim off, speaker out, and all the stuff so that its just a hollow door cavity and clean it out really good...

Run down to your local lowes or home depo and pick up a few cans of "Great Stuff" (you need about 1 can per pannel)... Cake the inside of the door panel with the foam( apply it in vertical stripes and space them about 1.5-2 inches appart as the foam expands about x5 times and hardens. Then leave it overnight and let the foam cure... Then the next day get a good razorblade and cut out peices of the hard foam where the speaker and different fixtures need to go(also make sure that the window can go down all the way).

Before you put the trim back in if you want it to be really quiet go get some dynomatt and cover the pannel in it... the result is a REALLY quiet and solid door pannel AND the foam only adds about .5lbs per can...
