No , but 90% of door seals are the same grade for cars only ( pattern ) change
If you need to replace with new I would measure the distance go down the local scrap yard find a few roughly same lenth grade etc etc & go price match
Bit time consuming but I bet a )100 bill would make you a lot happier end of day

The noise at "high" speed is common, if it's not letting water by i would not worry to much.
