My latest S-Type had a dreadfully worn and torn driver's side door seal and the hunt was on in local breakers yards to find an acceptable replacement. Unfortunately, all the cars I saw had the same sort of damage to the door seal.

Flicking through the JEPC, I noticed that the same seal was shown for either side of the car. Went and got a perfect seal from the passenger side of the first scrap car I saw, in perfect condition and, best of all, fits my driver's side aperture perfectly :)

So, if you need a replacement door seal, then either side of the car will do, bearing in mind that the driver's side always takes a much greater hammering than the other doors.

Thank you. That's very handy as my drivers side seal is in tatters.

I think someone very fat owned my car at some point. The drivers seat bolster is really worn, the leather on the squab is worn through right across and the foam has gone "dead" so you sit low in the seat. It suits me as I'm tall but isn't as comfy as the passenger seat witch looks like new.

Some previous owner kept slamming the seat belt buckle in the door as well, the A pillar is full of dents! It always retracts for me so I can only think they eventually gave in and replaced it.
