New seals - Outside noise

Post by FTOcrazy273 »

Is there a way to make the rubber seals tighter or a way to replace them? Yes i know they're an old car and it naturally happens but i'm getting so sick of the road noise and air coming in when i'm driving. Would realigning the doors help?

My window rail is off I think. I have a small gap that wind gets through.
