If you don't really care about using the stock seal, I've found that using a piece of trunk weather strip rubber works really well. In my first truck the stock seal left a gap between the door and seal which let in a lot of air. On my second truck I went to a salvage yard and got a piece of trunk rubber from a mid 70s Malibu and glued it in place of the stock seal. The trunk rubber was softer and closed up the gap...worked much better than stock.
