Problems with Window Felts
Here are some pics of the new window felts ("anti-rattler" kit) I got from DC. DC supplies these to others, I think? Anyway, if you have some, check them before installing. You can see the felt is not glued down at the bend near the rear, and one picture shows my felt that is about 3 yrs old (not very used, really). It caused the window to jam and ultimately come off the tracks. I have sent the pics to DC to see if they can do something about it. They clearly glue the felts to the backer, then bend them.
I used 3M weatherstrip adhesive to glue the felt back down in this area and am going to try them.

I also bought mine from DC.
