Hang my head in same....I still haven't done anything about it...It's just one of those jobs that kept getting put off for a nice day and when the nice day came there were better things to do.

Search eBay and Amazon, loads of choices and some of which is reasonably priced.

Afternoon Sparks, just reading through this "old post" did ya manage to put ya door seals on yet?
I've got Nov 2023 build and the "new" seals are on the rear wheel arches very similar to what col1984 did...that certainly cuts down on dirty rear doors!!
Had a look at front ingress....mmmm....seems that none of the skirt/sill/door mouldings/wheel arch panels are actually sealed/touching each other therefore leaving lotsa gaps for water to penetrate interior panels.
Does make sense to anyone...lol!
But like you say fairweather job,or garage time.

i'll be fitting the ones linked from sealsdirect when they turn up, the amount of built up crud in that rear door area is hilarious.

They stopped making it for private purchase, trade bulk purchase now only. Ordered something else, will fit that and see.

Col1948, have your door seals been effective.

Evening all sorry to bump..but Col1948 were the "extra" door seals ,not the wheel arch seals , useful in stopping the dirt getting in??

Just my luck..thanks Rizmo.
My Vivid Ruby had the rear arch seals already ftd which does keep out most of the dirt, but very dirty on front doors bottom of door & front pillar/sill!!
Looking to fit mudguards... front at least!??
