Default Rubber Patch ?

Hey Folks , I’m after a part number for the image below , it’s from a 2003 Disco. It’s used to cover the hinge that goes into the pillar to stop
water etc getting in . Does anyone know of the part number or what next to use to stick It back in place ?

Chk to make sure the weld isn't cracked there from the door detent / door check thing... the metal will fatigue and crack. I thought this was a purely cosmetic plastic cover and not really for water.

I couldn't find this on the parts diagrams btw. It might be part #19 (insert) or #20 on this diagram though (I'd bet 19) but googling that part number comes up with absolutely nothing anywhere online - https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic...nd/land-rover/

I wouldn't go nuts trying to find that little rubber patch. Not much to it. I made my own bigger and better out of a rubber material i had around. You could easily duplicate that in vinyl or other waterproof material. I added a tail on mine to send water away from the rubber wire grommet below.
Guessing here but it was likely a running change they added to solve a water leak after complaints started to pile up. Maybe never officially made it to the parts list as a dealer install.

Thanks for the pic and advice will give it a bash. What did you use to attach the rubber to the body work work & what’s the purple stuff along the Door Strap ?

Purple stuff is grease. I used a sealant called Lexel which is nothing special. Looks to be working. I have had great luck with e6000 which is more of a glue and sticks to about anything.
