Default Leaky Doors

My door seals are leaking, primarily at the top of them, its not horrible but its enough to make me want to fix it. Ive removed the front doors so that may be why they are leaking but ive never removed the back doors. I looked at all the seals and they appear to be in good shape..not rotted etc..any ideas?

You can get 97+ door seals, they're thicker. Or you could adjust the doors, but saying that my doors have leaked and ive yet to want to do it after removing my doors.

Try lowering the window & pushing "in" (towards vehicle) @ the top of the window frame, they get distorted after a while & don't seal right.

I will try that....but it tends to come in from between the top of the door and the door frame
