If it were me I'd use an inner tube, cut it to the shape you need, then paste it on with a little silicone.

My factory seals were all garbage like that too. I removed them all and replaced them with foam seal with adhesive backing that I got at home depot. All good now.

X2 on the Home Depot adhesive backed foam.

Cheap & it works great.

I thought about going that route, but for $12 the depot seal did the whole project.

Not sure what the dealer would have charged for replacement seals.
