I suggest you either stand further away when opening the door or wear a cup.

you know when you open the door there's the first stop and then if you open more, you'll get the final stop? well its making a cracking noise on both places and coming from where the door & car panels meet.

I probably have same problem, pressing in certain areas around where the noise eminates makes the clicking sound wane. My passenger side is much worse, fortunately, I don't open that door much.

The SA acknowledged it was bad and could be repaired, but another long job that might result in new rattles.
