Rubber block from front doors? Where do these go?
I'm sure most of you have removed your door cards more times than you'd like. Last time I found a 2 x 2 x 1 inch rubber block rolling around the bottom of the door. I just found another one in my passenger door yesterday.
It was once glued in there somewhere. It probably keeps something from rattling. Maybe the windows when closing the door. Anyone know where this goes?

I saw the same thing in both my front doors. I searched and never found a spot where they go.
There weren't any marks on the block (other than glue). So I just assumed wherever it came from, it wasn't doing anything important. My doors are really quiet and everything works fine so I just threw them out.

Door skin spacers...
There are a few of them. One at the top front and rear of the door cards, that are more contoured and a few on the back of the door card the press against the supports in the door..keeps the card from flopping around

I know what you're talking about but these aren't them. The ones at the top corners
are highly contoured (like you said) and made of a low density foam that is easily torn.
My rectangular parallelepiped, er block, is completely flat sided and is made of a high density foam that is not easily torn.
