Air leak on door

So im noticing a leak on the driver side door because there is air coming out of the window/unlock button and its not the speaker because I can feel the air coming in at 20mph only.Its nothing major but it just bugs feeling cold air when im driving.I checked the rubber seals on the door and I see no tears or bends so idk what It can be.I can try to record how the seals look with my camera if that would help?Any ideas?

After another thorough inspection I got my SUPER bright 160 bulb LED light and found this.Could it be the problem?

I don't think you would feel air coming in from there, for one it's coming from the bottom. As most cold air settles, I don't think you would feel it near the window switch. Trying feeling behind the door handle to see if it's trickling in from there

It stopped but for 2 days you can feel air come out of the window switch and the lock on top of the door

If you can take it to one of those touchless car washes that blow air at it at a very high velocity, that could tell you where it may be coming in from

whats weird is that It ended up being a problem on both doors as my brother pointed out that he felt air too out of the same locations as the driver door.but like I said,it randomly stopped
