Anyone know a fix. I don't want to try glue as that would be permanent and messy. Also I don't think it would hold. Any suggestions appreciated.

Also that black coated aluminium strip running along the bottom of the window is well corroded and buckled. I thought someone was selling these but they were quite dear. Is that still the case?

Cheers and thanks.

I would imagine it's the inner waist seals that have corroded that is pushing your door card away and stopping it clipping in properly (common issue). Just for info the limo rear inner waist seals are the same but a little longer so need trimming down. Good normal seals are hard to find!
