Here's what I bought way back in 2022, but unfortunately it looks like they're currently unavailable at the moment.

I have the rugged ridge ones. they are awesome https://www.extremeterrain.com/rugg...or-all-terrain-door-entry-guards-1121632.html

When installing them, if you use a hair dryer or heat gun to warm up the rubber and the tape(after wiping the sill off with alcohol) it will be a huge help. Apply heavy pressure to them for about 30 seconds and then just keep pressing them down working them into place.
2 years later of getting in and out they still look new.

I did 3m Clear bra material. ran it all the way down behind the slider so when I kick the side of my truck it has some protection too. Year 4 and still holding strong. I think I bout something like an 8"x 48" roll to get it done.

That's what I did. Full PPF in the door jambs.

I have these on top. I think they are the Mopar ones? Cant' remember.

I also have the rugged ridge ones because they protect the raised part of the sill that sees the most shoe contact. I step on it everyday getting out of the seat. I realize you don't want to interfere with the seal, but I preferred the total protection.

I don't notice any seal issues from the top lip of the sill guard as far as noise or wind, etc. The only time I notice something is in an automatic car wash; the close-up sideways pressure spray sometimes comes through for a brief second at the front bottom corner of the door. I assume it could be because of the guard/seal interference, but it doesn't seem to happen on the passenger side.

Currently have a more pressing issue than the potential leaking at the car wash…rear window is leaking rain into the cabin

+1 Rugged Ridge for 2.5 years, been great. But only $45 when I got them on Amazon.
