Default Water getting into the door

My car doesn't have the exterior rubber peice at the bottom of the driver window. It rained pretty bad the other day, and water getting into my door is not cool. I can't seem to find it anywhere on the internet, but I don't exactly know what it is called. Anyone know what the name of this rubber peice is?

You can get one from the dealer, or you can get one from 3sx. http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_vi...dProduct=24380
The link will take you to the piece you need.

the inside of the door is NOT meant to be waterproof. quite the opposite, in fact. The vapor seal is on the inside of the door to prevent the interior door panel from getting wet, but the inside of the door is in fact a "wet" area.

Manybrews is correct, even with a new seal, you will get some water in your door. That's why it has drain holes and vents for air circulation.
