Default Help - Rear door seals on a 940

Got my project 940 and have found rust on the upper door seals (photos attached). I Need to get new sets of door seal for the rear but I cannot find them for sale anywhere. Also the rust has affected the small rail the seals sit on. Any advice on where to get them and installation tips would be great.

Pretty sure the seal is felt and the actual door is going to be rusty.

Hi
Jackson's car dismantlers in North Wales had a 740 listed on eBay for parts as required, don't know if they still have it. On their website they have a 940 in for parts.
I bought a few things from them possibly worth asking.
They posted out to me.

The tops of the rear doors on my 1994 Wentworth have been like that for (10+) years and don’t seem to get any worse. I’ve pretty much decided to leave them alone until something actually fails or leaks.

There’s a thread which might be of interest here. I notice I posted pics of mine three years ago. They were bad then but are still going strong today.
