You could probably adjust the door striker out a bit so you don't crush the new gaskets and have to shut the doors so hard.

Where to get door weather striping?

Wouldn't that move the doors out away from the body a bit when they close? Right now they sit nice and flush.

sorry for the hijack and whatnot. But can you explain more about this door ajustment. I got new weatherstripping, and its a bitch to close the door and the damn thing still leaks. Just used the weatherstripping sealent. gotta wait for rain to see if it works. My door does look outta whack. So how do I adjust the door?
Door adjustments are at the hinges, and the striker.
If the door is perfectly flush at the rear, you don't want to mess with the striker. I'm sure the gasket will compress over time, but the less compression the more "give" it will have, which seals better in an application like that.
