Just wondering if anyone has replaced the soft rubber seal around the doors entrance, I noticed mine is ripped and causing a bad seal around the door. Ill post a pic later. Wondering if anyone attempted it? Easy or hard or take to dealer?

I did it. The seal was $60.
You have to take off the door sill.
It is a little tough. It just snaps off but be careful not to break the tabs.
Then you just pull the old rubber off and work the new one into place.
You have to work with it a bit to get it right and it is a little tricky around the corner of the dash
but you can do it. Good luck!

Did you need a screwdriver or any tool to remove/wedge the door sill out or did you do it by hand? also at what point did you start with the seal?? bottom or top?

Used a small pry tool. Started the seal at the bottom center.
Good luck.
