    go on Amazon and search" self adhesive car weather stripping". there's tons of options. also your local autoparts store should have it as well just look for maybe truck cap weather seal or something to that effect.

    Replace the door rubber. The cracks aren't the problem, it's deformed from it's original shape and allowing air to pass through.
