If it is the one I think, It is rust can be replaced easily small philips screw at rear of each door, remove it and it lifts out from memory

It's corrosion on the inner metal part of the trim piece, as Wildrover says they're easy enough to replace, I did one of mine a few days ago.
Rear ones are held with just one T20 screw at the front end and clipped in.
Front ones have two T20's, one each end.Clive

Mark, your correct,
He will not post these
I did mine a while ago got them from local dealers about £15 each iirc
Simple job,
Just be careful as they bend very easily hence why Nick won't post them

When I did mine last week, (rear left,) I got it from Paddock Motors @ £19.95 +vat, they posted it in one of those cardboard tubes normally used for rolled documents or pictures, arrived with no damage
Edited to add; they call it a "weatherstrip" same thing though.Clive
