LOL< No problem Jay!
For a crew cab, 60' should be plenty and u will have some left over. I think i will still buy 60' just in case for my Ext Cab. Im stopping by Lowes tonight i think while i am out and about.

This is what I got. The door rubber has 2 pieces of some kind of rubber in it. You will have to get that out before you can run the tubing through it.

You pull it through the inside of the factory door seal. The factory seals are basically a piece of tubing thats shaped to seal the door. You're pulling a smaller tube through the larger factory one. Make sense?

I'm another one sick of the road noise, I never thought these door sealers would go bad so darn quick, man, I even applied door sealing treatments overs the years vigoriously. Subscibing again but not for the 200.00 stuff Layson mentioned lol, wow.
