Since day one I have had a lot of road noise around the door. I have added weather stripping around the door that made a some difference. The door fits perfectly and is tight at this time. Today I removed the interior trim strip. While somewhat centered in the opening there was a gap of approx . 2”
on one side. I chinked fiberglass insulation
all the way around the door opening Quick road test proved a much quieter door. If you have a lot of road noise you might check under that door trim? There is nothing between the exterior aluminum trim
and the interior so just from a cool/heat perspective it is worth insulating this void. Thanks, Ron G.

Cab door or coach door? Not sure which interior trim strip you are referring to.

Good info! Thanks very much for the heads up!

Sorry, I did not take any photos. Just unscrew the 12’ish screws and the trim comes right off.
