wind noise from both rear doors

Is this a common problem for anybody else? While driving above 50 mph I have a nice wind noise coming in from, what sounds like, somewhere around the rear of both back doors somewhere. Anybody familiar with this?

Thanks

I have noticed this from day one, and didn't think I could prove this, and didnt know it was that much of a problem to make a TSB for it. I am out of my factory warranty. How exactly do TSB's work?
Do I just have to find a dealer willing to perform it, and then it's free? I'll only do it if it is free since I am a starving grad student.

Buy the 3M foam mentioned in the how-to I posted above and slap it in. Only a few bucks. Well worth the $. TSBs are generally only performed for free while you're under warranty.
