The first one is the standard door leak issue, there's plenty of threads talking about the door panels.

The second one might be a bit more tricky, but from memory you can get to the lock mechanism from inside the boot, it's behind the carpet.

The search functionality should give you some clues, I don't know about fuses unfortunately but here are some similar posts;

hi , the door leaks i have had a all my seats , if you take the plastic door panel of you will see a metal panel "window regulator" un bolt all but the top 2 just slacken them you then should have enough room to put some silicon sealent at least half way round,just make sure its clean and dry before you apply ,leave to dry out of the rain and that should cure the leaks...if not you may want to check the seal around your pollen filter under the bonnet...hope this helps..
