We just upgraded audio in a 2.0T FrontTrak, no Bose, and he came back the next day with buzzes in the driver door with certain notes. It was BAD! Neither of us had heard it the day before.
Turns out the plastic speaker gille clips into the door panel - even though you can't do anything with it off the door panel, since the speaker behind it won't come through. But it very lightly snaps in, and tapping it with your finger makes a rattle. Touching it while the speakers were playing prevented any rattle.
We used some foam adhesive sheet over a few of the touching surfaces, and some black high-temp silicone melt on a few tabs, to prevent any rattles. It can still be removed in future if need be.
