Sealing tailgate

Has anyone seen or used a kit that includes the sides and a wider strip that prevents things from dropping in the gap when the tailgate is down?

thinking I may need to buy two different kits. I really like the first one.

Looks like the first one should work. My buddy used some stuff from Home Depot. It was about 1/4 - 3/8 inch thick and about an inch wide. It's on a small roll, in the garage door insulation area.

Have you made sure no current moisture resides inside? Just a thought
