2007 Aveo LS Sedan - Whistle noise when going 70mph+ / windy days?

Heyo! I just have a quick question about the car

My dad owns a 2007 Aveo LS Sedan, base model. We've had it for years now, but we've always had this weird whistling noise when we go interstate speeds, or on pretty windy days. We've gotten used to it, but I've always wondered what might be causing it. Anyone have any ideas, or maybe ideas on how to stop it? Not an urgent issue or really a need-to-fix, just curious

I recorded an example vid of it tonight while on the highway, here's the vid below

If you Google around, you can find others have had that same problem. It seems to be the rubber weatherstripping door seal, usually the driver's door. When a slight air gap happens in the rubber weatherstripping seal of the door, the wind rushing past that gap makes a whistling noise. One suggestion I saw from someone involves installing extra self-adhesive weatherstripping beside the existing weatherstipping. You can buy that weatherstripping at Lowes or other big hardware stores. Other suggestions involve adjusting the door striker mechanism, so that the door and existing weatherstripping seats more fully when closed.

I like the dials.. I'm guessing those aren't original, right?

EDIT: I have been looking around, and I have seen it's the original dashboard for that version...

It's the original, seems like the sedan & hatch have different gauge clusters

Oh weird, I'll give this a look when I get the chance. I thought it was the mirrors or door handles causing the whistle, but it being the door gap is definitely interesting. Thanks
