I hate this but it's what you asked for . go to hardware store and buy cheap stick on foam weatherstrip , about 1/2" wide by 1/4" thick, and add it to all the door perimeter weatherstrip sealing surfaces .
on the vent windows . work some oil into the pivots so that they move freely. close them as tight as they will go. with the 'new' DOOR weatherstrip in place see what kind of noise you get now . pull in on the vents while driving , does it get quieter?? if so try shimming the handle/latches to close them even tighter . I sealed mine with clear silicone. there is another trick left but involved . see how that works , DAVE
