anyone know where you can get replacement door seal sets from, mine are starting to leak in a bit of water when i'm washing the car!

Camskill have one set for sale @ £43, you would probably be as well getting a set from a scapyard, in saying that, rubber tends to dry out and deteriorate over time, you could look at picking up a silicone based rubber lubricant that will breathe some life back into the seals.

STP Silcone Lubricant should do the job, you should be able to pick up a can in a motor factors.

The trim Camskill are selling is not the door seal but the inner hard rubber trim around the door opening of the body and itooks like its £43 for one. I presume the seal you are looking for is the soft rubber seal that the window of the door sits against when closed. If you look at the Camkill diagram CJ has linked to, the PNC numbers are 7437L and 7437R
I have several of these secondhand PM me if you are interested.
