I couldn't find it either.  But if i remember correctly the Kia seals used were from a Sportage.  

When I did mine the seals came from Black Dragon.  They were iffy at first and I had trouble with the doors and rear hatch.  It turned out that the seals were just fine, It was my attention to proficiency that was lacking.  In my case, the door seals really need to be fitted well on the front (body) toward the dash. The door would not close until the seal was set properly. Same with the rear hatch up at the top. Just make sure the seal is set all the way on in the slot and make sure they are straight.  Trial and error was my formula for success. Good Luck!

Vintage Rubber. Fits perfect. Doors close, for me, perfectly. Looks original.
