I have to commend Nissan for the rubber seals around all the doors. This is especially true for us king cab owners. The ability to be able to have doors that open 168 degrees and still close with a water tight seal is great! Not to mention how quiet it keeps the inside. This is more apparent with the complants about inside cab noises.

I've noticed, however, that the rubber seal on the bottom of the real drivers side door is starting to peel away. I haven't asked the dealer about it yet, but if they won't do anything about it I'll probably just put some adhesive on it.

I guess this is more of an FYI for all you at there.

The bottom seal on the full sized doors are removeable for cleaning the bottom of the doors where the drain holes are. Just carefully peal them straight out. They are held in with clips.

Yes Nissan did a great job with sealing the doors.... I have noticed one thing. Every once in a while after it has rained the door seals will make sounds like when you are shifting around in a leather seat or putting on a leather coat ... It usually makes this noise going over curbs at slow speeds one wheel at a time when the body is flexing... the easy fix is the next time you wash your truck and are drying it put a little vasoline on a paper towel and rub over all the seals (very thin coat... no excess). This helps make a good tight seal and keeps the rubber pliable.
