latief, the seals appear normal for a 16-year old car and the door alignment seems OK too. Did you try using a piece of paper to check how tight the seals are against the body? Open the hood and check for filler pieces on either side of the radiator. Those pieces are missing from our 1995 E320 and at highway speeds I hear noise from air blowing through the engine compartment and exiting at the base of the windshield. I suspect a previous owner, or tech, removed them when working on the radiator or A/C evaporator and never replaced them. Bought new ones, but haven't installed them yet. If these pieces are missing air bypasses the evaporator and evaporator affecting their performance too, especially in FL.

It's also possible the window tint installer damaged/removed the interior window seals.

It would be good if you could compare your window seals with another 124 car that's in excellent condition.
