Default Door/window molding

Hi! When I open my door in the rain (or when I have washed the car), water drips into the seat. It looks from the shape of the molding where I made a circle that it's supposed to drip into that space to continue down in the molding. Is the molding ready to be changed? If that's the case, can someone help me find it on www.hondaautomotiveparts.com or something? I can't find it... Hope molding is the right name... hehe. Is anyone else having the same problem? Very grateful for any help!

Both my 01 and my new 07 does EXACTLY the same thing. If it's raining or my car is wet, I can't open the driver's side window. It will just cause a steady stream of water to fall into the cabin area (specifically my knee right next to the window lock button).

Sucks. If I put a little pressure on that "flap", it will fix it, but 30 seconds later, it'll go right back to normal. I've learned to deal with it. Oh well.

I needed a smoke while it was heavily raining once. I leaned my left leg over to soak the up dripping. By the time I was done smoking, my entire left leg was soaked.

So it's nothing to do with it? Looks like that little "flap" should have been extended a bit.. That would probably have fixed it. But that's no 5min DIY I think

I always have a brand new microfiber cloth to soak up those drips. I guess even great cars have quirky annoyances.

I usually just move my leg so it drips on me instead of the seat. Well well. Doesn't look like there is a quickfix on this..
