i have a 97 R reg corsa and my cousin has a V reg 1.4 sport and i noticed the other day that he has an extra door seal going around the top part where the door closes if you know what i mean so i was wondering if they can be bought if so how much and if anyone has the part number for them that would be ace

Scrapyard is your friend.
I fitted GSi ones to my Nova to replace poverty spec ones, good mod IMO.

They are only ever fitted on C16XE or X16XE cars.

My sport had them. At a guess, keep noise down a bit on M'ways, and keep a bit of cold out/heat in too.

Just extra seal between the door and the frame. Cut down noise a very small amount and cause water off the roof to enter the car if the window is open instead of running down the gap.

This is the question you asked

As you can see it wasn't specific to what the extra part of insulation on the seal is for.
Now if you would be as kind to apologise that would be fantastic
