You cant buy the original inner door "skins" from vw anymore, but they do sell a roll of sponge type "stuff" but at £10 a roll its a tad expensive. Some peeps use like a bin bag material, then gaffa tape them up....that should fix the problem.

Make sure your rubber door seals are intact aswell....just incase one isnt sealing, or is twisted up
