perishing rubbers

Ok recent issues with wifes 2002 e46 have revealed really sub par plastics and rubbers, be these the ineternal panels , rubber seals about headlamps and rubber seal that runs along width of windshield just about the wipers...all we have is heat out here...


The X has the same rubbers it seems in the same places, is the only way to preserve the rubber parts to keep the car out of the intense sun? and is there any new tech type of sealant that can easily be used to recty the seals that have weathered away...?



Literally just dried and crumbled away on many areas of e46 , shame totally rubbish compared to a clapped out old mazda we also have around that is solid as a rock in terms of its rubber seals etc....
