Check the back of the SnS mag, theres a place that does rubber water proofing for these things, its a green ad at the back....as far as I can remember...

There's a couple of pics and a thread somewhere on the forum of that blue SX that's being stripped in Pta...
Seek and ye shall find.
As for the rubber place (no not durex), it's a company called Pro Auto Rubber. They do not have the SX door rubbers in stock as there are certain parts of this specifc rubber that's moulded. I think the only one they have is the boot rubber...

Dudes, there's an easy way to fix this (works for the sunroof too). You need to buy a thin plastic tubing (kind of like the tube holding the ink in your ball-point pen, only a bit bigger). Then you make a small hole on one end of the weather strip and feed it in slowly untill it fills up the weather strip. This will give it the additional thickness and springyness that it needs to seal properly. You can then seal the hole you made with a bit of black silicone.

That worked for my sunroof, my problem now is the wind noise from the side windows (from that little triangle part of the door).
