Default Keeping door speakers dry

I'd like to keep the moisture off of my door speakers. Unfortunately the plastic membrane in the door doesn't protect the back of the speakers. I know all about the foam baffles, but don't want to decrease the excellent sound quality I'm getting with my new speakers.

Was wondering about getting a foam baffle, cutting it in half, and then gluing it over top of the small hood on the back of the door panel to shield the speakers a bit more. Any other ideas/thoughts/suggestions?

i dont think the inserts will decrease your sound quality they will probably make them sound better.

Ended up having some foam baffles thrown in at lunch time, It's a little on the cold side today so it's hard to get a true idea of the sound today vs yesterday when it was much warmer. Either way, they'll now be clean/dry.

If it's -20C, speakers don't sound quite the same, not to mention every thing rattles more when it's cold.
