Angry Odd Whistling Sound

so i get in my car tonight and i start driving and i hear this high pitch whistling coming fromt he passenger side footwell. the pitch will get higher as i accelerate more. so i thought it might have something to do with my sound system so i turn up the music but i can still hear it. so i test my speakers with the fad/bal. and it seems the front passenger speaker is out.

could a bad speaker do this?
also what are the size of our speakerS?

I have the same problem.
Its the rubber mold. It gets kind of flatten and, it doesnt put enough pressure onto the glass window to seal out the wind anymore.
I tried to lookup the parts in hoping to replace it. But the damn thing is like $250!
I said F***it and fixed it instead.
The way I fix it is this, if you observe the rubber mold, it has like a pouch.
I bought a small, long rubber hose and stick it in the pouch like a shim.
Now it puts more pressure on the window, enough to seal off the wind.
