This is a much better solution to the felt:

Very easy to fit without removing the glass.


What's the best way to get the new felt to go around the corner of the windows??


I pulled all the felt out and then fed the wollies channel round the window, using silicon spray to lubricate it. It creased slightly on the corners but after a day or two with the windows firmly closed they sat fine with no creases

Done mine with the woolies trim today. I thought the felt only went as far as the back of the single moving pane of glass. Didnt realise it goes all the way to the back Embarassed Ordered 2 mtres and its done one window fully and half of the other. Should stop rattling now at least but its going to bug me until i buy the rest and finish the job.

Should've checked before i bought it really Rolling Eyes

@Retroanaconda has a slightly extreme method in his 90 - a screwdriver down between the door and the glass Whistle Ed

Will 3m be enough to complete both sides?
