Open your door and locate the upper rubber weatherstrip door seal. Simply pull it off of the lip. The rubber weatherstrip door seal prevents air and wind, as well as water and snow, other things from getting in past the top of the door and pooling in this area, and makes it run down the front of the truck and down the door, so you don't get a build up here. When you open the door, have water, debris, fall on you.

Line up the edge of the upper rubber weather strip door seal to the lip and simply press it into place. Close your door and check for good contact all the way along.
